Wow, great A to B comparison @jay_man81 .
Now that the P500 has high end shocks and front locker avalible what's next?
Plans for a maker dump bed? Cabin air conditioner or maybe a slide in pop-top camper?

Thanks for the time you put in to getting the vid together and posted.

Here is my review and test vid of the new Torq Locker for the Pioneer 500 available to order now!


Although I'm SUPER EXCITED somebody stepped up and gave the P500 some love, my worries about the locker being limited by high center was correct! Yes it can help in certain situations however only if the conditions are ideal and generally that is NEVER the case!!!

Thanks Jay, great video as usual. Would be nice to find someone local that would put it in for a price. Not that I couldn't do it, just don't have the time. Only a couple of guys have put these in so far but what do you think the going rate would be for an install? Think you said 4 hrs...$200?

4 hrs shop time sounds reasonable, depending on installed accessories. I would install these all day long for $200.

It took me a little over 4hrs including messing with camera set up and the like. I believe Torq Master has right on the order page that install time is approximately 4hrs

Nitrous at WOT.

Get you 2 20lbs bottles and mount them on the rear of the cage with matching body colored fittings. It would be magical until the boom.
