P1000 White Lightning Build

snuffnwhisky submitted a new Garage Item:

White Lightning Build

Bought her 2 weeks ago. Had a full page s*** list the first night. Didn't really know about Honda having a sxs or much about sxs's until I talked to my brother about getting one. He works at the local Honda shop... lucky me! Started reading this forum after talking to him and out of the blue a guy at work wanted a four-wheeler and I had one... so it begins!

Looks good man. I really want to use glass for mine so I can run a wiper.
Mopar If you needed glass just do like Snuff did then a glass shop would cut it for you for around 125.just tell them 1/4 safety.

I got a quote from my local glass shop. It's gonna be about 225 because Im building a frameless design and they will have to order a bigger sheet that 48" our windshield opening is like 53 or something.

I'll probably swap to glass once this one gets beat up. I will be spec'ing 1/4" Laminated, not tempered. With the frame, I believe my glass was right at 48" wide.

Shocks are installed and sway bar removed. Won't get to drive it till tomorrow night before loading for Bull Run Friday. Definitely feels like it actually has shocks on it now trying to rock back a forth! Of course I forgot to measure ride height before swapping dangit

Important question...do the shocks squeak? Excited to hear the results, maybe you could switch with Joey so we get a double comparison?
