P500 My 520 build.....so far

[bowhunterbob]

So, I finally have my P520 almost to where I want it to be. It has been three years in the making. I still want to put on power steering, a torque locker, a skid plate, and probably a DemerBox for music. Below is a list of everything I have added so far, and four pics. Let me know if anyone has any specific questions. I want to thank everyone on the forum that has helped me along the way with either specific advice or postings I researched. This build would not have been possible without all the valuable information I have gotten from this awesome forum.

Very nice looking. It’s even Gnome red! Under your avatar it still say that you’re a non owner. May wanna change that, oh great and glorious lurker from afar….Did you remove the sway bar yet? That makes them less tippy unless thats Different on the 520’s? I had a 500…LeGoat-0

No sway bar on the 520.

Looks great! I like the storage boxes. Incidentally, I recommend cup holders from Crossroads. The Honda ones are pretty bad.

Thank you! Storage boxes I researched all over for the right size to fit the bed. I was willing to pay whatever for nice ones. Found them at good old Tractor Supply. Have to drill two holes in side of bed, insert threaded grommets, then held down by long threaded bolt with plastic wing nut at top. They feel super secure when installed. Then when you need the bed, they are quick and easy to remove. Thanks for cupholder recommendation from Crossroads. I was pleased with their glove box.
