lol Well the beer switch is for when we stop and I want to leave the radio, two way, ect on.. Flip that switch I can turn the key off and all that stuff stays on with out the dash cluster being on.. With the switch off the key turns everthing on and off. I had my old one wired the same way just didn't have a cool switch..

The Apocalypse Light switch is for the light bar on the roof :) the Driving light is for a 12 LED light bar on the bumper.. Which isn't there yet but its all wired for it. Not sure if I really need it though.. I might end up with some strobes or a night rider light up there lol I guess if I do add the smaller one atleast I can have more light with out blinding the guy infront of me..

Thanks for the compliment! I was very happy with the machine this weekend. First time I've really had it out on real trails. The machine did really good and the ride was very smooth. Everything from the cage and radio down to the door bags and the storage box in the back seat all worked out well. I do need to come up with some tree kickers though. I already knew that, But there was a couple times this weekend they would have really helped me make some turns. It would be nice in tight stuff just to focus on the front and let the back just slide on a tree if needed. I did have to back up and do a three point in a couple of spots also. With some kickers I'm pretty sure I could have made the turns in one shot.

At any rate the station wagon did better then I expected and was a blast to drive.. Don't miss my old RZR at all...

Where did you get those switches any ways? I tried googling them but turned up nothing. Had a great time riding with you Friday and Saturday.

Thanks!

As for the switches yeah ther are several sites that sell them. Honestly I didn't shop around all that much. I was in a hurry and didn't have time to wait. Found them on a site I've ordered from before called them and thy had red ones in stock and could get them to me quick. I also ordered 5 of them so that helped.

HatWave Got some goodies in today, 1" forward Arched A-arms from back woods armor and a set of super dave's bushings to go in them. I haven't had a set of stock XP a-arms in my hands yet so I can't say for sure. But these seem much better built just by looking at them. They are much heavier then stock S arms. I'm guessing once I get the stock arms off they will feel like tin cans compared to these suckers. I was going to wait till I either bent one of the stock arms or needed to replace the stock bushings before I got these. I just decided to heck with it and went ahead and picked up a set since I already changed out the rear trailing arms and radius rods for Zbothers High clearance ones. Might has well have some stronger high clearance A-arms on the front to complete the package..

Ok got a question for you guys with these forward arched a-arms. I got everything changed out and my alignment was way off. At first I was thinking maybe I got the upper A-arms on the wrong side or something, but then of course I remembered they were 1" forward arms so having to adjust the toe is probably a given.. Well I got the toe set and the part that worries me is I had to unscrew the tierod end a pretty good bit. I went several turns past where it needed to be just to see if I ran out of threads and I didn't. It sure doesn't seem like there is much of the tie rod threaded in to the end though. I guess thats normal. Is everyone else riding on them like this or is there another option. Like longer tie rods or longer ends? Lol I wast tempted to losen the locking nut up a hair weld it to the tie rod end and just get another set of nuts to lock the rod down. I could just be over thinking it, I just really don't want to have a tie rod shear off out on the trail somewhere.
