P1000 Blue by you

[russknight]

Changing colors from Phantom Camo to Proton Blue. Also replacing the firewall / floorboard that a large stick busted some time back. Will be installing stick stoppers and cleaning the wiring up too. Also added an Optima AGM battery under the seat. It's been a job, but I'm getting close to the end now.

I like the blue, what are the tires and size ?

I like the blue also. If my Pioneer had been blue when assembled I would have left it as it was.

15" Super Swampers. 29.5" tall. Great tires, clean well and are DOT certified. My buggy is street legal. They ride decent on the road and do very well in mud and sand.

Are you going with SATV stick stoppers or making your own?

SATV, and if anyone has some install photos and tips I'm all ears and eyes.

It was an easy install on my P1000-3. Fit well.

Looks like I've used the wrong terminology. What I am installing is the Richochet Offroad right and left rockslider / skidplates. Looks like you have them too, or the entire skid plate assembly.

I think it's one of the most attractive colors. I like the camo, but it was peeling badly on my hood.

I have Factory UTV 1/2” UHMW skidplates

I wanted to give anyone paying attention to this thread an important update. If you ever replace part number 2 in this diagram, whatever you do before installing the new one, BE SURE to install the headlight wiring harness first. I forgot to do it, and it was a real nightmare snaking it where it needed to be then installing the retainer clips.

Do those tires rub? Looks like you just have Superatv arms or do you have some sort of lift?

No, they don't, and yes I have the SATV arms, no lift.

Are the rims 5+2?

Are the rims 5+2?

Yes, with 1 1/2" spacers in the rear.

Got the Ricochet skid plates installed. Took about 30 minutes. Pretty easy install. This project turned into a much more labor intensive job than I anticipated. I bought a new winch from the company store a while back but kept the old relay and wiring in place. I went ahead and changed all of it out too, and discovered it is much nicer than the standard winch hardware. Really nice, heavy duty wireless remote. Good installation instructions. I have one question about it I'll post elsewhere for visibility's sake. I'll post up some pics later. I hope to be mostly finished today.
