just wondering if anyone else has this issue. the front belly pan, the tabs that rivot to the underside of the bumper are broken. I was wondering if its caused by the float plate. I have only been out 4 times, and I havent done anything too hard on it.

Very common...it doesnt take much to do that..cold plastic is not designed for any type of impact...at all! The bumper tab mounts are a joke! I am assuming you are talking about an 08 model year.
On an 08..the slightest impact will break those. You can get around it by replacing the bumper with a Skinz or other type as they dont use the tabs. If you have an intact bumper and are stuck under know means can you use it to pull on either. I am not sure what the purpose of that piece of plastic is that Polaris calls a bumper, other than to have something to recycle!

no, i have a '10. I was going to fab up some aluminum tabs to rivot to the tub and back on the bumper.
My 2009 is the same way. I have one broken tab. Trying to find a way to hood it tight.
