    Is anyone actually riding?

    Headed to Rugged Mountain Ranch for the normal New Years shenanigans. Near freezing at night and 50's during the day with now rain in the forecast.

    Improve Hydroboost Brakes

    Funny follow up to this whole brake saga. When I swapped to the 1/2 ton master, brakes were pretty good for a long time until one trip when the peddle went to the floor. After disassembly of the master, I found one of the piston seals to be the wrong size, it was floating in its groove vs the...

    24' Car Hauler/Equipment Trailer $7500 obo

    We wanted one of those Earthroamers, spent about 6 months researching prices of used and availability. Yeah, that wasn't gonna happen. So found a new leftover 22' Thor Omni for a steal, put a 3" lift on it. It's a F550 4x4, diesel with the 10 speed auto. Has 4.88's but only 32" tires. It shifts...

    24' Car Hauler/Equipment Trailer $7500 obo

    2021 Iron Bull Trailer, twin 7 k axles with brakes on both. Trailer was 83" wide but I added the extra width where the buggy sits. We would typically put our 2 dr RZR on the front and our buggy on the rear. We pulled it behind our motorhome with has an incredibly long ass so I did a spring over...

    Pics of your shops/garages/specs

    You guys have it made!!! I have to empty my pretty stuff out so I can pull the buggy in to work on!! 2 car garage is tight. Every time I come across a good deal on a tool, I have to figure out where to put it.

    Dorman

    Does that mean we can buy a lift kit at Autozone for our SXS's? With Wheel Pros buying Transamerican/4 Wheel Parts, the world of UTV's will prob see a big push for aftermarket, but inventory is super low and prices are through the roof. Vision Wheel is opening 3 new warehouses across the...

    Ultra4 - Tear Down in Tennessee - AOP, South Pittsburg, TN - June 17-19, 2022

    Just a heads up but the Rufus Racing team out of Dallas, Tx is in route and is a bit short handed. Zandy Willems team owner said if anybody wants to be behind the scenes, they would love any kind of help. It would prob be help in pits. They have a blue Volvo semi with a white 53' trailer, grey...

    SX stickies and racelines

    I am not running any spacers on mine. I torqued the bolts to around 20lbs, prob a little tighter to be honest. My rings basically bottom against the wheel. I did notice it took really low air pressure to get the inside bead to seat so I broke the first one back down and did 5 wraps of black...

    I’m thinking of replacing my glass windshield

    I did my TJ and LJ buggys with Lexan, bought 1/4" thick. It is more scratch resistant than plexiglass. I then used Plexus to clean and polish them a bunch before we hit the trails and every time I cleaned it. I don't recommend using your windshield wipers at all. The Lexan would have a little...

    Improve Hydroboost Brakes

    I started with the hydroboost and 1.46" bore master from a 05' 2500 burb with 8.1 gas and switched to an 05' 1500 Chevy 5.3 that did not have the hydroboost option. The specs said 1.25" bore.

    Improve Hydroboost Brakes

    I'm here to confirm that the internet didn't lie. Brakes are noticeably better. I was a little concerned swapping stuff out that the pushrod was a little long but i think the hydroboost acts a little different. I had an oem pushrod which was 3.14" per all the googling i could do. Been that way...

    Improve Hydroboost Brakes

    After getting home and comparing, the GM master uses 1/2-20 ports for front and rear where the ram one had 2 different size metric ports. No big deal, I can get some fittings and brake lines. So I went back on Oreilys web site and the 05 Chevy half ton gas has the same 1/2-20 ports and a 1.25...

    Improve Hydroboost Brakes

    Won't be able to make it. I run a shop so I can get 3 day weekends here and there and really have to plan out my vacations. Thinking Hammers next year and wheel instead of work the race team. Depends what the wife has to say, considering how much she likes to drive the buggy, most of my time off...

    Improve Hydroboost Brakes

    Thanks Zjman!! I work in an automotive shop and just clicked and ordered from my Oreilly's. They just dropped it off. The upside is if I don't like it they will take it back. Our shop is their biggest commercial account so they really like us. Now when I get to go home and see what I need to...

    Improve Hydroboost Brakes

    I ordered the factory pedal from the same GM 2500 truck. I was trying to keep everything as correct as possible. I found online somewhere where they talked about pedal ratio. Manual vs vacuum vs hydroboost. I might be able to extend pedal a little, maybe an inch. That is a good idea...
