New wheels on, and I'm loving it.

This was my first time using real beadlock wheels. I was able to get the tires on the rims myself, but it took some muscle. I don't work this hard at my real job, lol

Tusk Terrabites 30x10x14, on STI HD5, 14x7, 5+2 offset.

Forgot to add, I weighed these wheels and my stocks to see what the difference is.

Stock front...31 lbs
Stock rear....41 lbs
Tusk/STI.....49 lbs

Took it down the road up to about 50 mph, and felt smooth as silk.

What a difference the wheels and tires make vs stock. The red STI's are awesome!Which vendor for the wheels& tires?

I went through EverythingRZR on the RZR forum. They are really just a middle man, but can get discounts, which they passed along.

Finally finished the bed cover I've been working on the past couple weeks. It's half inch plywood, painted black, then wrapped with tonneau cover material.

Got these rubber pulls to hold it shut, and allows me to open the tailgate, and still have the bed cover secured.

Got a 2x6 running across the center, so this thing is strong enough to stand on. Also relocated the air hookup. Now the comp. and tank are covered and protected.

The front stationary panel is held down with screws through the 2x6, and at the front, 6" bolt run through three of the holes with nuts, and big washers. It's not falling off any time soon.

Been eyeing a 32" x 12" x 6" aluminum storage box, that will fit nicely on the stationary part. I'll get that later on, spent too much money here recently.

Looks sweet MMX! Nice job. do you plan on doing anything with the two holes in the tailgate?

 

[MMX]

No, they'll stay open. I don't need it to be water tight, just resistant. I should still be able to hose it out when it gets dirty.

 

[RockinRonnie]

I just noticed the billet grill that matches your truck also very nice looking!

Man that is darn cool, great work on the bed cover, did you look at any other options besides wood ? I know that keeps the cost down which is awesome

I went back and forth on a few ideas there. I even started a rack out of the same tubing I used on the sliders, and bumper, but decided I really wanted a bed cover. Then I debated construction on that for a week or so. I build stuff in my head several times before actually doing anything, but once I get it figured out, I go at it.

I might have $50 in the cover, so I think it worked out pretty good. The box I'm going to get will be the perfect place for tools, straps, and other stuff, so the bed can just worry about the cooler.

Ever think of selling the front kydex guards? Have been looking everywhere for a set of em with no luck and would make my own maybe if I could find kydex but if you didn't wanna sell em where'd you get your kydex?

Alaskan47, I'm not seeing the FRONT mud guards on your website. Do you have pictures and a price?

Thanks.

Another piece of the bed cover puzzle...

I built the bed cover with this box in mind, even though I didn't have it at the time. Fortunately the measurements Summit provided were dead on. Going to get some black egg crate foam to put inside, to keep the tools and such from flying around. Have it set up like a gun case.
