Wow that must be painful when you have to put on the team gear.    That is a fun offroad team to follow.  

I am guessing you don't wear your Padre gear around the team owner.

Yes we do. He really doesn't mind. He is a true baseball fan.

Alright back to Canned Ham posts.....

That's not what I heard.

It sounded like he wouldn't be able to put his X3 back together without his Speed UTV tool kit. That's no surprise.

I did have to use some other tools as the Speed kit does not have a socket for the axle nut.  Harbor Freight does though.  So either way China helped put my Canadian built in Mexico X3 together.  LOL!!!!

Lord of the Dunes reminded me I did do very little work on my X3 on Sunday.  LOL!

Put the rear shocks back on and removed the front plastic so I can install my gusset kit and new bumper.   I will hopefully get to installing the bumper and gusset kit this coming weekend.  Hopefully will get my radio installed too.  I picked up the new M1 radio from Rugged at the sand show.

I am replacing the doors.  Just waiting for my cage, which hopefully I get in a few more weeks.  
 

I will let you know when the stock doors are off.  
 

Are you in So. Cal? 

 
Got my lights mounted on the new bumper.    Picked up a new steering wheel at the sand show.

$6K I will be that deep in mine before the first dune trip. No cage, No seats.

Almost $2K in tick tack stuff so far easy. Mirrors, Misc Hangers(Helmet, Flag,Antenna), Four Point Belts, Bags, Chase bar, pumper and helmet, lower doors and the mount for the radio I switched over.

over $2K in paddles and rims, what a joy it was trying to find rims let me tell you.  Plus I hope my name gets to the top of the paddle list before October comes around.

Next up is the gusset kit and double shear stuff for the back, so that will be another $1K installed

and last will be the suspension work by MTS.

Better stop typing and get to work need more money and time in a hurry.

Even on the stock Big Hrons, it'll get around the dunes really well.

ZRP braces should prevent the sway bar mounting area from developing cracks later on down the line.  It reduces the flex in that area.

I think I need some Yosemite Sam on the Rock Knockers or maybe the chrome ladies.  LOL!
