well i got it because its easy to haul stuff into my cabin during the winter with tracks on it than it is with my snowmobiles. we get between 9-12 feet of snow at my cabin and the pulp road does not get plowed since im the only cabin on the mountain. it gets a little hard trying to carry stuff in a pack riding my sled in. this was i can fill up the cargo bed in the back and tow a sled behind me in. and it fits in the back of my truck unlike any other sidexsides i wont use it much for trail riding i have 3 other four wheelers for that. this is a pure work machine
just did this too...got sick of how my front looked when i had my grill out for my FMIC so i just built this to tie the front end together better

well i got screwed on the coilovers because of the rain today. and my 20mm spacers should be here anytime and going in tonight. i also sold $200 worth of parts today so thats almost half the money i need for my stage 2 revo tune, im hoping to have my other set of lighted jetta vents, my extra switch blade key, and my other intercooler sold by friday to go down and get it when my buddy gets his stage 2 tune also.
oh and the boost gauge hosing kit gets here wed. if i dont end up getting the other $250 i need by friday im going to get their trial tune, which is a slightly less aggressive stage 1 tune which gives you 5 driving hours on it

Roger, something tells me you're not in the 22-23" range. Atleast not on 18s. To get that low, most people are having to go with 16s, notching the frame, and removing the front sway bar. 22s are reallu f ing low.

yeah its a 5 speed TIP, which im prob going to change out and drop in a 6speed. although i kinda like having an auto..never have to worry about changing the clutch, doesnt suck in traffic, and shifts faster than a stick can and i still have 5 speeds..so its not that big of a draw back
