P1000m5 Adam490's Short Bus

Adam490 submitted a new Garage Item:

Adam490's Short Bus Budget Build

Bought new from Honda Powersports of Covington. Went with the P1k5 after riding a few times with my daughter on my Rubicon and realizing we needed something more secure and comfortable to fit the whole family. She's been dubbed the Short BusView attachment 142813

Lousy stock door hinge bolts finally gave up the ghost today. Picked up some better hardware from auto parts store

Got the old girl some new clothes, but FedEx only delivered the drivers side today. Both sides had pretty significant cracks in them. Probably @joeymt33 fault...

I’m very sure I am responsible in someway.

M6 knobs came in today for my chainsaw mount so I got them on and chopped off the rest of the threaded rod. I think it'll work out pretty good as long as they don't rattle loose.

Factory hinge bolts are super soft. I started including hinge bolts with the doors.

Yeah, I knew it but thought I could get away with using them one more time. Wasn't that lucky

Hooray, a present!

Yep, passenger came in today. The originals took a beating, hopefully these last as long. They others finally scraped enough to wear thin, then just cracked along the stress lines. $21.12 per side from RMATV and had them in two days.

I was hoping y'all would guess but @GlockMeister tears the same s*** up I do 😂 so it didn't take long to figure out.

Met up with some of the guys from FL over the weekend to ride the National Forest trails. Managed to finish off my driver axle that's been clicking for the last few rides!

Adam490 I assume by the 2 fans mounted behind the SATV windshield it is safe to say that your machine is still pretty hot also?

There's one 12v fan I bought at Walmart that morning. I only put it in there because my little girl was going to be in there for an extended time. The heat has never really bothered me. Probably from driving old Yotas and Honda's with no AC for years as a kid/young man.

I think you're seeing my tablet mount next to it

That's all she wrote....

I was going to try and piece it back together for a spare but looks like it'll be a sacrificial lamb for a diff plug. The splines on the axle are destroyed.

Yep. I was satisfied with the amount of pieces that fell out once I cut the boot loose!

Impressive

 

[Adam490]

Got a diff plug out of my sacrificial lamb axle, some gloves I ordered back in March showed up, and I got the new axle back in and everything buttoned back up. Been a good Friday

 

[Adam490]

I'll make someone a good deal on a bunch of left hand gloves 😂, I've probably got $200 in brand new left gloves!

If I ever run across this I'm buying it for you. It's you if I ever saw it! Hell, knowing you, you already have it.

Ps: Probably my favorite movie ever.
