P1000 Project: Ramen Noodles

Based on how badass your 500 is I can't wait to see how this project progresses

Oh ok, you did a good job on the cup holder for sure! It looks professional. Also, yes I would love a few pics of the lightbar brackets. I was unsure how I was going to mount it because at the top of the rollcage, right below the roof overhang is where she wants it, but the tubing isnt round up there. It ovals out and curves to go towards the back so normal lightbar brackets wont go around the tubing. Thank you!

Light bar brackets
Mine is mounted at the bottom though.
I also have the c-fab worth every penny

Thank you for the pics. That seems like a simple way of doing it. I will take it into consideration for sure!

Ok So today I went and bought some rubber grommets from the hardware store. I drilled holes in the rollbar tubing and pushed the grommets in and sprayed the 1/4" vent hoses and grommets with wd40 and pushed the vent hoses up to the top of the rollcage inside the rollcage tubing. The vent tubing is 1/4" i.d. and 3/8" o.d. The grommets are 3/8" i.d. and being honest I didnt pay attention to the outside diameter. I just used a stepbit until it was the right size hole lol. So far Ive done the rear diff vent hose up the passenger rear rollcage upright. The shifter box thingy vent line up the drivers rear rollcage upright. The fuel tank I vented up inside that tube that holds the passenger head rest on. It will be head level inside that tube so hopefully thats good enough. The sub trans vent line is in the same tube, it just goes towards the drivers side head rest. If she's in water that deep she will have bigger problems than those vents not being high enough, so Im not worried too much about it. I didnt do the front diff or the radiator vent fan hose yet because she ordered that Warrior snorkle kit and it is designed to have a few vent lines ran up the outside of the snorkle tube and it has a few grooves at the top for vent lines to run through to make everything look neat and clean. When the snorkle comes in I will probably run the clear vent tubing up to the tip, but plan on switching those 2 vent lines out to red colored vent tubing to keep with the black/red theme. Ok heres some pics.

First person I have seen run them up the roll cage tubing. Nice job.

Ok, well it feels weird posting something in the P1000 section of this awesome website. I normally lurk in the P500 section because of my P500. Although my wife owned a P700-4 I hardly ever posted anything about the things I did to it though. Well, she got a wild hair up her butt and decided she wanted to trade her 2015 P700-4 in on a 2018 P1K5 Deluxe. We actually drove her car 30 miles to the dealer just to window shop and see about the ins and outs of trading a machine for another one, and next thing I know we're signing papers and having to drive back home and put the P700 on the trailer and drive it back to the dealer to swap it for the P1000-5! So, I decided to make a build thread on this thing for the heck of it. She has already ordered about $638264836273856384626484.27 worth of crap for it, so I'm gonna be busy in the upcoming weeks. Its 'Project: Ramen Noodles' because thats all I can afford to eat now that we have started buying stuff for it lol! At least I like them. Ok well there is a small break between now and when all the stuff starts rolling in, so in the meantime I studied up what all has to be vented on a P1000-5 and went to Lowes and bought about 40' of 1/4" i.d. vent line, and a variety of barbed hose connectors to hook the 1/4" line to the factory vent lines. I will be venting both diffs, fuel tank, radiator fan, sub trans, and a shifter box or something like that its called. I'm going to start on that tomorrow. In the meantime, I just got done taking the safety nets off, because we believe in safety 3rd around here. Lol So far she has ordered 14" wheels that Im going to put my 30" Monster Mayhems on that I used to have on my P5 before I got portals. She ordered red center caps to go on the wheels to keep up with the red/black color scheme. She ordered a Warrior snorkle, KFI 4500lb. winch, winch mount, 52" curved light bar, 6 gang switch panel with voltmeter and cig lighter/usb charger, l.e.d. rock lights to mount in the fender wells so it glows red around the machine at night, a Highlifter 2.5" bracket lift, and an overhead bluetooth stereo system that has a couple of speakers and flashy lights and crap built into it. Heres a few pics of the machine before and after the net removal, and pics of all the crap Im gonna have to put on. Yall have a Merry Christmas!!!

Always enjoyed watching you run that 500 hard I’m sure the 1000 will get some abuse too. She’s going to love it

Thanks for the link to the cup holders ... wasn't having any luck getting a durable cup that was skinny enough to fit in my P5's cup holders ... problem solved it would seem ... cup holder replacements ordered today! Thanks Bowtie. Gregg

Just a heads up, these do require opening up the hole for the cup holder. A dremel tool makes it a quick easy job.

Bowtie ... thanks for the heads up. Can you describe what you had to do. I do have a Dremel but don't know what you're referring to ... room for the button on the bottom of the stainless cup?

Once you pop the factory cupholder out, you'll just have to open up the hole a little at a time to make room for the bigger stainless cup holder.

Oh I get it ... the plastic around the cup is still too narrow (after removing the factory cup)?

Yep, you got it.
