Took her home a couple weeks ago. Ran the first 15 break-in miles then assessorized for our Spring break trip to Moab. Here it is just off the trailer in Moab on her virgin run! F6018a912a2a5cee5c81fd11f2d4c6b6A29432e861204f76a9a7f7f34d8d3c8aDe3bc24ab3452c8b5a1425325779aad0

Great looking rig! No full coverage skids for the out side frame rails?

Rear bumper looks nice on there! Did you add it?

That's the OEM rear bumper.

It's nice! But...$220:eek:. Maybe find a used one on eBay if I'm patient for $100.

So hit Fins N Things in Sand Flats. I am very familiar with this trail. I have had a built JKU and Xterra on it. Plus a AC Prowler. All did fine with the full trail.
Put the PK1 in low I-4wd and it crawled over everything so easily. 2 adults, 2 kids, shocks on middle. Went great for about 10 minutes...then it overheated and boiled over. Poured our water bottles in the res tank after it cooled and got it back to the condo. Not happy. The machine now has 37 miles. 9d1eaeba87af312c4629525600b85f8b

Any idea what caused it? Did the fan kick on and off normally?

$180 on pro caliber.com with free shipping. It's a pretty nice bumper. We liked it enough that we bought one for my fathers three seater P 1000. It's nice to have a little bit of protection it's not overly heavy and it's built to work with the vehicle and match. I don't see many people using it, as the aftermarket companies also have good offerings.

That's a little more reasonable! Might have to sleep on it! Lol. But I think If I decide to add one it will be that one! Thanks

Verified fan is working. Guess it was in low too long. Kept reading about use low if climbing, towing, hauling, etc to avoid tranny issues. Checking all fluids in the AM, adding back the antifreeze and trying again. Also the spare tire rack, cooler rack(v2) from Moses at Brick City Fab arrives tommorrow. That way I can carry more cold water bottles to help when it overheats!!

It should never overheat unless there is a problem. You should be able to use low all day. I will sometimes ride in low for hours with 30" tires, passengers, gear, etc. and that's after romping through the mud.

Some guys have had to "burp" it. Try this....

Good job on the link @joeymt33 My P1k5 has already had a temp longer on. Super clean. 1st gear put-putting around on asphalt.

So I'll see if there is any air in the hoses. (I sure hope so!)
