P500 What did you do to/with your Pioneer 500 today?

[Smitty335]

Did you have a dot diapear? HA!

I got my first dislike from @500oneer. Was just checking? I know you little guys can get twisted easily, didn't know that was all it took? HA! I meant no harm or slander! I have a lot of little guy friends! I even hang with them after dark! That should get the self named fleas fired up and I wasn't even trying. I used to go to the P5 site and slander the P5 when the site was really slow and they would pour out of the wood work like ants, the site would get real lively, I started calling them the ants, I got corrected by a P5 owner, they were more like fleas, cause they just kept biting, funny stuff there! Who was the guy that corrected me? Not on my account, but you guys are fleas now! HA! This is just BS! I love to ride with anyone who loves the out doors, you could ride a burro and I would have a good time with you!

You're like that drunken uncle that comes over and spills his beer and sh**, it's annoying but you still love him.
We know when we need to circle the wagons, you're good around here Smitty!

Well you surely know by now, if you circle the wagons it would be for not, I never attack! Just aggravate! HA! You guys surely did save some boring nights on the site!

Tore down the front end over the weekend. Been sitting on some stuff for a couple of months now but it's time...one more round! 👊



The new stuff:
Outkast forward arched A arms
OutKast tie rod extensions
All Balls Racing ball joints
This is the spare, ordered 4 more today, went with BH 2.0's again. Have no desire to go up to 32's or anything, these run 28 1/8" actual and are slightly narrower than the 11's I was running. They only weigh 28 lbs a piece so I'm not worried about turning them.



On paper, I should end up about 1 3/4" taller than before and be at 55 1/2" width. These also push the length of the wheelbase 1.87" which should give slightly more stability. Won't know if that's going to be stable enough until I ride it though so we'll see.
The whole point is for true 28's with plenty of clearance all around and no rub. Longer wheelbase and taller rubber for more ground clearance and a better ride while still staying as narrow as possible. Figure it's going to look pretty BA too! 😎

Yes, yes it is going to look bad ass! Now is the perfect time for this stuff. Looking forward to your results!

Impressive! It doesn't sit still very long, does it?

"one more round"

🤷‍♂️ We all know better. 😁 Can't wait to see it "done" ... again.

Correct me if I am wrong but a short time ago did someone not say they were done putting options on their machine?

We should start a pool on that.......

We'd have to get someone to take the "done" bet though there would be way too many takers on the "not done" side.

As PT Barnum said "There is a sucker born every minute", and we would definitely have to find the guy who just fell off the turnip wagon to take that bet....

CRS syndrome is forgiven @Smitty335 . You are always welcome when you get tired of the short bus forum and need some reminding about the best SxS model. Grandpas are the best.

You ants still around? HA! Just trying to stir the pot! I haven't had an ant attack in a while! HA! Happy Trails!

Thanks for reminding me Mudder. 😣
Yeah, this one isn't exactly cheap either! Pretty expensive for the subtle change I'm making really. Selling old stuff is helping to ease the pain though.

Just hoping the triggershields help out. A win-win for you and us P500 owners.

trigger, arms come with bushings? Read the chatter in the past about the factory, for lack of a better term, 'torsion' bushings....

Yes, they came with bushings. Extended tie rods were extra and ball joints of course. A arm bolts need to be changed out to 12mm instead of the stock 10's too.
