i know you see everyone relocatin the radiator to the front rack these days, and i just wanna know how necessary is it, im sure it depends on how deep you go, but is it somethin i absoloutly need to do, in other words what am i hurting by not doing it.

Well thats a simple answer.
If your atv is NOT overheating, and your radiator is NOT being plugged all the time, then you do not need to relocate the radiator to the fornt racl
If your atv IS overheating and the rad. is being plugged, then you do need to relocate.

There will be no damage done leaving it the way it is IF your atv is not having any overheating problems.

i have plugged my stocker twice with it in its orig location. the trails we ride in are mostly mudded ruts where your frame drags the center and scoops mud up into the rad. i got a 35 buck hl water pump to spray it out on the trail.
