Added 28x10x12 Blackwater Evolutions all the way around as I wanted a taller tire, the same size and unidirectional so I could use one spare, and a narrower rear tire for thick gooey mud(easier to sling the mud out of the tread)
Spare tire and tool carrier because I have started carrying 3+ people and need room for them and/or a cooler. The tools and spare took up the bed and didn't let me carry 3+.
I have two RotoPax
One containing Recovery Gear: Block, tree saver strap, (2) D-Rings, 50' synthetic winch cable extension, collapsing shovel, hand chainsaw, and winch remote.
The other containing tools: Tire repair kit with plugs, patches and a mini compressor, folding lug wrench and splined lug nut adapter,ratchet with standard and metric, allen wrenches, hammer, 8-1 Kline screwdriver, electrical tape, butane soldering iron and solder, wire dikes, zipties, black RTV silicon, waterproof matches, ratchet strap(to reseat a tire if it comes off), and the most important of them all toilet paper in a ziplock bag.

I played musical light bars and added some cubes, I needed lights for my tractor and the 12" was perfect, since Amazon has such great deals on LED bars I bought a 42" for @$60 and (2) 6 watt cubes for side lights for about $20 (the night ride at Windrock was "illuminating" as to the fact in tight turns I had no light to see where I was going.) I moved the 24" to the dash braced behind it with 3" long piece of aluminum flatcar to keep it from shaking hardly at all and mounted the 42" to the roof, its braced off the windshield using the screws that secure the windshield to the quick release clamps, doesn't even think about a wiggle.
LED light strip instead of the headlights, with the light bars I don't need them anyway, the el cheapo headlights I could find locally kept blowing and I had extra RGB led strip from another project, stuck it on. When I turn the headlight switch on my switches light up and the LED strip is powered.
Also re-installed my power steering and re-plumbed the heater so I can replace the heater valve with an electronic version that hopefully will not be under water like I had it previously.
The present valve does not seal off the heater well enough either and as it's gotten warmer the heat that comes out of the vents is a bit much. I want to use the fan as just that a fan.
Which I also relocated the second vent from under the dash to into the dash above the map compartment so it could serve as a defogger if needed, because after I hit a mud hole it's like a steam bath in the cab.
SuperATV was nice enough to send me cable extensions so that I could use the power steering and the heater. So the second picture with the control box mounted to the fender is current the first is just to show the power steering unit itself. Power steering is freaking awesome, way easier for my wife to drive it around(may have been a mistake installing it, I get to drive less now) see this thread for more details

Added 2015 Dual rate shocks, better ride, copied
@RunningBear, they work well. See this thread for more details
//hondasxs.com/threads/2014-honda-shocks-vs-2015-honda-dual-rate-shocks.2399/#post-17385
You can see the difference here (dual rate on the left)
Better ride not quite Fox Shocks but also about 1/10th the price, but with all the adds and without the 1-¼" spacer the 28" Evos rub now.
My next add which is being powder coated right now is a custom 4" lift front and rear based off a strong made design (not getting 16" of clearance because of all the weight in accessories) only getting 3" in the front but it's enough to not rub a hole in the floorboards.
Also added USB ports for my phone and to power my GoPros
And I was cleaning up the shotgun shells after a particularly vigorous day of skeet shooting when I decided to do this just for fun.
Stay tuned more is on its way.
