P500 What did you do to/with your Pioneer 500 today?

[Eltobgi]

I double checked the directions and it said to drill underneath (and thats where the holes in the mount were). The mount used the bolts on the side of the bumper to attach also.

This is the MotoAlliance mount for the Denali plow I bought from the HondaSxS Store. Are your mounts/plows from there or another brand?

KFI is the brand I purchased. Does yours have the two holes in the upper section of the mount where we have ours mounted?

Front tire has been loosing air after getting some tree bark in the bead. Used the Harbor Freight tire changer to break the bead and remove a decent sized chunk. Worked ok.

What worries me about the WE shocks is what you said about having to relocate the lower shock mounts on the fronts due to binding. That was the first I heard of that and cooled me off from getting them for a bit. Curious if the Elka's have the same issue? And I am still baffled as to why Fox does not make shocks for the P5

I thought it was odd nobody else had mentioned it.I just caught it by chance.Maybe others have the slight issue and just have not noticed yet.Jason Dimmick has a video where he had a right front axle come apart on a ride,while his machine still had stock a-arms.Don't know if his cup was binding or not.Maybe Trigger could put this to rest.If he would jack up the front of his and check if the front right CV has atouch of bump-bump when he spins the wheel.It could have just been my 500,and it was not much bind at all,but I took care of it.That being said,I would fight somebody over my WE's...LoL

I wonder why they don't supply straps with them to eliminate the issue?

It may not be an issue,just showed up on my 17 model.The WE's are only a little longer than stock,at least mine were.I only moved my lower mounts outward 1/2 inch to clear up the small bind.They build these shocks pretty much as they are ordered,could be that the shock bottoms on mine were not screwed on as far as others,don't know.I would not want to run straps anyway.

What kind of polish/rubbing compound do you use?

Did some Turtle brand rubbing compound, then polishing compound, then regular wax. Took out a lot of scratch marks from 3 yrs of woods riding.

Put mine to work this morning ,cleaning up all of the leaves and such.It's pulling a dump trailer that I threw together using the stock P-5 front tires ans a $69 winch.It works great.
