Noticed you installed the K&N per the instructions and used the hose, that's what I was planning too.
So you intend to use the P5 as your plow mule, what size blade? I've never had a problem pushing snow with a 66" and have only spun the tires when pushing stone. You'll dig it due to it being so small, allows for better detailing in tight areas. Winding out the reverse gear on long runs sucks though.
What's the deal on the hose on the crank case ventilation port? Does it hook up to anything?

Yeah I didn’t want to install it other than how it was recommended! I plan to remove it and inspect it after some use to ensure everything is as it should be prior to running it this summer in very dusty conditions. May also run a pre-filter off the snorkel when I get to it. I do need to replace the seal on the cover as it looked crushed. Have a link for a replacement o_O

I have a plow on the Beast that I am hoping would work and I believe it’s a 72” moose with HD push tubes. I hoping at a full angle slant it will work better than it does on the Beast:cool:

I saw where JayMan didn't use the hose and put some of the foam filter over the crank vent. The only way it would effect anything is if you tipped the machine and drained oil into the airbox with K&N's set up. I think it'll breathe better though.

Yeah considered it that way but prefer it the way it was designed. I know there is no way I will ever put the Mini-BEAST on its side.:confused::cool:

Mounted up a few spot on the ROPS and a few Floods on the Winch Mount bracket bolts. I was unable to put a pin in the receiver with them mount up near the 12” light bar.

Still have to wire them both upper spots and lower floods. Replaced the old floods because one had a flicker. Have two more floods for the rear but haven’t mounted them yet.

And how are you going to haul that wood? HA!
It’s just in the back of the house so I winched it in, and drug it the rest of the way with a tow rope. But I have a sled to haul what I cut.
