Are those to strength the upper A-Arms bolt holes to prevent them from getting oversized?

Yeah, weld washers and stronger 12.9 grade bolts with a locknut.

I've been meaning to do the same thing! I guess I better put a shower curtain on mama's grocery list when she goes to Walmart.
I ziptied the top to the ROPS and can roll it down and use bungees to secure the sides/bottom. I'm digging it for the time/money into it. Used some Velcro straps to hold it rolled up.

How you liking those Terrabites so far?
Took it for one ride around the neighborhood to make sure nothing fell apart. Can't really say how I like them yet, but I will have it out at my dad's place tomorrow so I can stretch its legs a bit more on his trails.

Finally got a chance to put a few miles on the machine Tuesday since adding the tires and arms; rides stiff as a board! Hoping it loosens up pretty quick once I get some real trail miles on it and the suspension gets a chance to flex and settle. I still need to get my toe sorted and align the front end.

Looks like I need to replace one of the hood latch push pins on my rear door, but other than a few loose skid bolts and some scratches here and there everything looks good after giving her hell in Arkansas 👍🏻

Forgot I had this huge roll of 3M carbon fiber automotive wrap. Now I've got a carbon fiber snorkel tube, which probably gives me at least 5hp!
