What have you done to your SidexSide this week?

Not sure why I picked the Growlers. Most of my buds have the Rockers and all love them, I previously had a set of Swamplites on it and liked the off road handling liked how you could drive on the side of a bank and not loose footing so I went for the same tread design in a radial and even better bite, also just Haaaad to be different, kinda the same reason I ride the Arctic Cat, or "The Beast" as my buds call it. I'll keep ya posted as to the performance of them, and HELL YES I am rough on tires!!

New set of HID lights and are they bright $36.99 eBay

Two cords of firewood.............

Hollon---Good looking machine and the tires look good too!

Will do! Thanks for the tip!

Well I just tore into the front end of the 2008 RZR that my dad drives. I am replacing the sprague with an aluminum one, replacing the ball joints, and replacing the bushings in the front. Also going to look at the steering and grease that. I just have to wait on parts now. All has been torn apar. LOL After I get done with that I will be tackling the engine.

Chad, what did you say was wrong with the 08 RZR's engine?

Let me know when. I would like to help if I have the time. Maybe if you put two half wits together, it will not be as hard.....

The engine is using oil and is only getting worse so it is time to tare it down and rebuild it. I am just trying to weigh the pros and cons of putting a big bore kit in it or going back stock. If I go back stock it will be easy but if i go with a big bore then I will be forced to remove the entire enine and replace the cam too as well as a new fuel controller.

Yep, it is more work with the big bore and more money too. But at least you know to get a power commander from the get-go......

You could also bore the stock cylinder maybe 1mm or 2mm over. I think Z's was burning oil and he bored the stock one......and he's had no problems.

Well tore the front diff apart and the plastic sprague was cracked in several places. Also had plastic pieces flake off. Anyone that has an older RZR might want to consider an upgrade. I was shocked about how bad the sprague actually was. I know worthless without pics but I just wanted to give an update. I ordered the Holz complete kit to put back in it today.

Took all the plastics off of it, took the skids off, took the brakes apart......clean as a pin.
Clocked it at 64mph on the GPS.......

Broke a front shock

hooked up the battery tender to it.... it hasnt been riden in a while...........its clean as a new one.....

Installed new Viper Max winch, went with wire cable. Cleaned and serviced.

Installed the Summitt Racing heater box, just in time for Windrock.

Tested the radio, cooler and HID's!
