P1000m5 And so it begins.........AKA draining of the wallet!

[Rincon]

So I bought my 2017 P1k5 about a month ago now. Already have about 500 miles on Little Pepe! First install was the rear lights, now I have a Superwinch Terra 45 coming. Going to build a custom gun rack for my boys, they shoot competitive shotgun for there high school. Brother in Law is building a custom spare tire carrier for when we are hunting. Next is going to be a switch panel and dual batteries. Going to extend the breather lines too. It stinks that I want to do so much, but don't have the time! Thanks you to all who have posted How To's! Also, are the Fox shocks worth the money? I see some guy's just running them in the front?

Lol.. and it begins!
I tried to hold off on shocks.. I questioned if they were worth it. but after doing fronts and riding once I ordered rears.
I think it depends on your riding style, speed and area. If it's rocky, rough and you roll fast. They're totally worth it!

I agree @elkguide it is a blast to work on them, and yes I'm wondering myself when the spending will end. I think I have more time working on mine than actually riding in it.

Would you say its "night and day" ? My wife was complaining the other day about getting jostled around and wanted to know why buddy wasnt getting bumped around as bad in his rzr1000 xp. Im trying to "explain" to her why i at least need the front set of Fox shocks. Also, did it make the same amount of ride improvement when you put the back set on as the front?? Im assuming they dont self level after that..

Backs will be here tomorrow.. with just the fronts it's far better. But I feel all the chatter and shiftiness in the rear now. The fronts show you how bad the backs are. It's true! No, the backs aren't self leveling but you can adjust the preload for your desired ride height and then stiffen them when under load.

Now they won't be the suspension that the razor is as it's not a sport machine. We're twice the weight and with less suspension travel.

Update, rear lights - check. Superwinch Terra 45 bought and sitting in the garage, EMP winch mount on the way! Going to build a gun rack for my boy's for sporting clays next I think. Really am starting to get shock envy from some of the posts I'm reading!
