YALL WANTED DIRTY

I took the rhino out for some deep water testing and

i wanted deeper soooooooooooooo

and deeper..................

So now Im happy as you can see. I can sit there for an hour at an idle if I want to.

So now im just chillen with happieness





The motor is running in every pic

AND THEN....................I HAD TO GET OUT

Things didnt go so well this time. I had been up and down this 8 times in 4 days during testing and OOPS...........

I think it works better when the heels are on the ground

Now that they are on the ground.............and the winch does not work :evil: I had 1 choice, Put it to the floor and hang on. I got it out but I took on some damage! Now that its broke in I can use it

Great pics Dreth. Thanks for sharing them. By the way. I want your Bilsteins

The upclose pics were in this section. Probably a few pages back. Yep, a sub if needed. I wont go looking for the water but if it is in the way of the rest of my day of riding I am prepared to expell the parascope

water is not really dirty!!!!

a) I agree with Big R... that thing still aint dirty

b) nice snorkel - nice to know you can hit the water if its in your way!!

c)gnarly looking climb out - and yes, you need to keep at least 3 rubbers touching something solid...

d) why didnt the winch work? (water in connections???)

e) what kind of damage did you sustain??? where are those pics??? come on - let us see your misery...misery loves company...

C= its easy if you dont take your eyes off it
D= The winch had not been used in over a year so it was froze up. It works now

F= Thanks, we love it and as long as it keeps the family together we will keep dumping in the cash

As far as the dirt goes.....................wait 15 more days, we will be in Brimstone taking our money's worth back to the cabin each day

Basically all the carb vents and the water pump vent.

ok thanks i got all the goodies for making it today now just gotta get crackin

Dreth, I think you are the one that tied all your snorkels (Intake and CVT) together if I remember right. How is the 450 running like that? Any change that you noticed in performance from the motor? That just blows my mind that you have your CVT intake and exhaust piped into your Carb intake. And both pipes are your intake and exhaust. That setup just seems to me that it would give your Carb. a fit. You just may have hit on a cool setup, but I still cant get a grip on it.
