P1000 The Making Of Pete

Amazon.com: Floureon Universal Motorcycle Phone Mount Holder USB Charger for iPhone, Samsung and GPS Device: Cell Phones & Accessories

Initial impressions of this phone holder/charger are very good. It mounted exactly how I had imagined by bolting to top of dash above instrument cluster. Seems sturdy and has a built in water "resistant" USB charger.

Pictures coming soon.

Amazon.com: Quick-Draw? Overhead Gun Rack - UTV's with 28"-35" rollbar depth: Automotive

Gun rack is Ok, but doesn't work well once I got the soft mid panel and re-hung the roll bar bag. I guess the rack will have to be stored until there is a need for it.

Pro Armor Complete Fire Extinguisher Kit | ATV | Rocky Mountain ATV/MC

Fire extinguisher mounted nicely to the rear drivers side ROPS. I had to put a rubber stopper over the spray nozzle to keep mud out.

Pictures coming soon.

I know it doesn't count without pics, but figured I'd go ahead and get the pages started...

These are some good looking tires! Haven't seen them before

I don't think I had seen them either until I dug around a little bit. I don't think they've been out too long. Had some good reviews. I'm curious to see how they measure out.

Me too! I've been looking at light truck tires ..the tensors don't seem aggressive enough for me

yeah, the tensors looked more for dry rocky terrain. we get too much red clay mud around here... gotta have some meat to it. I hope these are a good mix of light truck and offroad.

OK Peteie did you hit power ball or did TVA put out Christmas Bonus that I didn't get!?

Hey now, I'm pretty far behind most if you boys... I've been patiently waiting and watching to see how other people's rides turned out. I spent a lot of time putting together my shopping list. I think this should pretty much get old Pete dialed in. It's gonna be a big push to get it all installed and get photos to share... I may need you to come down and supervise again!

I hope your snorkel head will come in this week. Do you have a preference on your tube length.

By the way I finally got moved into my new shop. It's 3000ft of heated space and has a car lift, welders, air compressor and access to a fully stock fab shop across the street. Might have to push a Miata or two out of the way to work- building a new race care for next year. You are welcome to bring your new box of toys up and we can put them together.

I'm thinking about front shocks. What's your take on the rears?

I'm not sure on the snorkel height... I guess I'll just do it the same as yours. I don't think it needs to be too high. If water is coming over my hood, I'm probably trying to find the reverse lever anyway!lol
I may take you up on the install help. Having a lift for the lift kit and shock install would be nice. I'm still waiting on the tires and shocks. Already got everything else. Tires should be here early next week. Not sure on the shocks. They custom build them up their in Canada'eh.

I ordered front and rear. I wanted to get the "full effect"...lol They will have to be pretty impressive to ease the sting from the price tag. we'll see...

I think I know a man that's got one if your interested! Free! @Upstatefreedom

You should be able to jump over a house when in stalled. You will need to run a log book on the shocks to determine what you like best. Me and my brother just order a set 4 for next yrs race car - right at $5K without springs. Crazy for 1-2 seconds per lap.

Been talking to him on PM. Working on details of transfer. If he's got great deer hunting property I will deliver!
