P1000m5 Dragon21's build

Dragon21 submitted a new Garage Item:

Here We Go Again... 1000-5 This Time

Well, now that the 700-4 is gone and the 1000-5 is home. its time to get started on the build again. I really try to go slow and pace myself. however that doesnt always work that way. When i got it, it had roof and windshield as part of the deal.

Ordered a winch and mount, synthetic rope and fairlead for it, HL snorkel, Amazon switch plate, fuse box, 100amp disconnect.

still plan to get a honda front bumper, lightbars, and soundbar.. when money permits.

debating about dual battery setup... not sure if ill do that or not. I dont tend to use radio or lights when its not running.

@GridlockH8 just informed me they have a extra Hot version. We use the hot in everything (Chili, spaghetti, dip, sausage balls, etc). Cant wait to try the very hot

Yea, I like their hot version myself - I get my parents to bring some out when they come to visit.

Got my rear a arms on this weekend. Was able to make some adjustments to the shocks after and with a quick test ride I have no more rubbing and ride quality seems awesome. Can’t wait to get it back to WV next month now.

I thought the newer models are supposed to be setup better out of the box, it did look in at the bottom but I assumed it needed rolled to settle. Is it much off?

They are setup to factory specs out of the box. but with a little larger tire and lift from the shocks its off some. I need to put some weight in the bed and ride to to see how it looks. With no weight i went for a short ride and it looks like it needs adjusting.

Top pic was after install and short ride.

Bittersweet day today as I said bye to the Pioneer as it went to a new owner. I still strongly believe It’s the best SXS on the market for more than 2 people. However, it’s always just me on rides, so time for a 2 seat sport sxs.

I know this post is from a years ago but im trying to wire up the DPDT switch like you had on the pioneer. It sure would be helpful if you could explain to me how to wire it up. Thank you!
