[franzw]

Hello all, will be submitting photos of my ongoing build and try to help newbies with questions. Hope it helps. Finally have 100 miles on it and it is at dealers getting serviced. So far have installed the basic Honda parts including; Warn wiring harness and warn winch, hard roof with side and rear soft windows, Front glass windshield with wiper. Had dealer install and make it street legal with turn signals, horn, rear mirrors, licence plate with permits for on and off road (in wash., limited to 35 mph roads), Also have added many modifications including side mirrors, second battery with isolator, rear amped cabelas Boss speakers, many led lights from Amazon in front and rear for night travel (connected to dash toggle board. Will post more pictures and describe other add ons.

Where did you get the front 2" receiver?

After exploring numerous hitch mount options, found the one that was adaptible enough , and what fit was one purchased at Harbour Freight for about $30.00. Used one of the warn winch roller bolt holes to secure hitch. Drilled other mounting holes in front bumper to secure total of 4 bolts. Use the receiver hitch to move various trailers around property, especially around tight corners. Also works well to secure rig in trailer with hook receiver in front.

Also added sirries XM radio to my speakers for tunes and talk shows while riding on trails or town. Also wired Apple Ipod to amped speakers, have over 3000 of my favs recorded. And most important of all is front rifle rack for hunting season or Zombie attack. Fits my HK 91 308 Assault rifle perfect and easy access.

Cool mount, I like your style! Unless you plan to just smash zombie skulls with that thing though, you better put a clip in that bad boy. I personally feel that 12 guage with 00 buck does a nicer job on zombies though?

Have you had any problems with dust collecting on the rifle?

I agree with the 12 gauge with 00 buck, keep one under the bed, great home defense close range, no need to worry about high powered rounds ending up in neighbors bedroom. Still have to sight in new 308 HR-91 with varmit scope before hunting season. Will not be using 20 rnd clip, don't want to scare other hunters, bought special 5 rnd clip for it. Dust usually isn't issue here during hunting season, mostly ground is wet or snowy. Heat under seat will be welcome.

Well thankyou. Hunt deer during late season over by Chewelah, near Colville, Wn. Used to hunt with my dad therefor many years. He has since passed away but I still hunt on same land, mostly private and state forest land. Mostly still hunting during rut. Usually take 10 days off to hunt there by myself, nice quiet get away. Up the mountain and camp in a meadow with water source for game. Many great memorable hunting trips spent there.

Got my rig back from 100mile service today, pleasantry surprised with price, about $480. Also fixed some problems under warranty. They wired up my turn signals I mounted in dash, also my additional AhOuga horn for grandsons? For no extra charge. The turn signals in dash were important , now like ones in my truck, easy to see. Will post more pictures.

 

[dillonhart]

Here is another great addition to any big game hunting camp. After I drag the game back to camp, this hoist makes skinning and cutting easier.
