Being paralyzed, it was really hard to reach the air filter and spark plugs. I decided to do my "how to" version of a "bed delete" on it. It has provided MUCH better access to the air filter, injectors, spark plugs, etc.
I like what you did there, and it looks pretty good. I think my favorite part is the use of the factory lights flipped sides and the easy access of removable flooring. 👍🏼
My guy!!! I am also paralized and looking to a bed delete for the same reason. I installed the AA stage 3 lock and load this summer with my dad and MAN, WHAT A CHORE FROM THE CHAIR!! I just ordered the water cooled turbo and stage 4 so figured while the beds off ill do a bed delete. Awesome vid!!
Hey man, good to hear from another para! The stock bed is terrible for us folks, haha. Working on these things isn't easy, but it's better a lot of cars I work on. I recently did the Dynojet (same as AA water cooled turbo) turbo upgrade. It makes quite the difference! What hand controls do you use?
@@PapaWheeliesWorld good to meet yuh. I used to drag race a custom 300hp snowmobile powered atv...but broke my hip and isnt possible anymore. That ran 3.3 seconds at 90mph...so trying to get a SIMILAR rush...but its not even CLOSE to the same lol. I use the 300$ controls i got almost 20 yrs ago. They clamp to the pedals...each comed up near my waidt and connect...pull for gas pysh for break. Im going to mount my launch control button on the handle so i can have a hand on the wheel and hand on launch. Pretty excited. Should have it in a week or two. I think im gonna bite the bullet and pay my buddy who has an atv shop to do it.
@@BSConservativeGOAT That snowmobile sounds crazy!! That should work well for your launch control to be on the hand control. You might look into the Hess Motorsports 2:1 steering reducer. I love mine for one handed driving!!! 1/2 to 3/4 turn lock to lock!
WOW! I found your video looking for something else entirely, but you did an amazing job on your bed delete! It looks fantastic and I'm happy you made this machine easier for you to work on! I'm sure others will see this and be inspired to paint the canvas to suit them. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks! It sure does make better access. I have three friends who have done something similar after I did mine because of how easy it makes it to work on.
Outstanding! I wish I could visualize a project like you do. I have a ‘21 rzr trail that i was trying to make a tonneau cover for and this made me rethink everything. You’re bed design sure would make it easier to load deer/elk!
Absolutely nothing bad to say about that. Looks killer and even better served a bad ass service! You killed it man! And got major balls to do that too!
I think you did an awesome job with the boat tailed project! I hope that you are able to access the engine better. I assume that the wife was happy with the end result as well.
Start making that a kit! That is sick! I love the way it turned out. Great job. I wanna do mine now too. I like the way it makes the rear end squatty looking. To me it’s too bulky stock!
Thanks so much for the response!! I never thought about making a kit out of it. You're right, I don't prefer the big bulky rear end of them when they are stock.
Started watching because of the catchy title...immediately thought wtf is this guy doing, but I'll be honest it doesn't look bad for what I assume was relatively low cost overall. Plus it helps with your mobility needs so I'd say it's a job well done. The factory taillight locations you chose do look really good so nice idea there. As long as you're happy with it and it's functional for your needs, then it's a win.
Badass dude! I was just looking around for RZR videos and found you. I myself am a para and recently purchased a RZR myself. I was wondering from the title why anyone would do this and after seeing this I love it being that we are in the same situation. Would love to link up and ride sometime.
Came out SICK!!!! Bro def a unique look out there and that would be sick if you could put like a tube bumper that matches your cage to cover the exhaust
Thank you so much!! And yes, I should do a bumper like you said. Watch our video on Adam's car called "Part 1: Big Turbo Bernice". Adam's car has a cool rear bump/bed section that I may have to copy some day.
Thanks for the comment! It was really a fun project! I haven't done too much custom stuff to it yet. I'd like to upgrade the turbo at some point, but I like the reliability of stock.
I’m paralyzed too, and I was WTH is he doing. But makes sense. Personally if I need access to that stuff I’ll have someone else help me out. But I get it man, sometimes you just wanna do shit yourself lol. This was balsy but you did impress me, came out pretty clean
Haha, thanks! I'm usually the one doing all the work (spark plugs, oil change, air filter, turbo swap) myself so every little bit helps. I was a little worried when I started, but I am happy with the results. Thanks for your feedback!!
My dad is also in a wheelchair. Has no movement in legs or feet . He’s always wanted a side by side to join me on rides . My question is does your have hand controls or how do you drive yours ? Also do you keep a wheel chair on board or leave it back at the truck ? Love the video keep on riding safe man !
I do have hand controls in mine. I have a kit from these folks: www.suregrip-handcontrols.com/recreation It took a little modifying, but it's a good kit overall. I don't usually bring my chair with. If I know we are going to get out somewhere then I'll bring it.
Thank you! The factory cage is not chromoly and it's not tig welded. The aftermarket cage on mine is DOM and MIG welded. I wish there were more options out there for chromoly/tig.
i think it looks bitchin! i love how you re used the stock lights by reversing them and really like that light bar tail light! thinkin about doing something similar to my 2 seat. thanks for the great video and inspiration/motivation to bust out the multi tool and get cuttin!
Thanks for your input!! It's fun to just start cutting and figure things out as you go! A little nerve racking sometimes, but that's part of the fun I think.
i get it. if i was paralyzed i may have come up with a project like this. it doesn’t look bad at all either. it just seems like a lot of work just to get to that compartment. couldn’t u have your wife do the simple checks since u couldn’t reach? or just have to dealership to the scheduled maintenance. if people like us have the money to buy a rzr we have the money to have a pro maintain it
Oh yeah, I definitely have people to help! I am a mechanic/fabricator by nature and build my own stuff so I like making things more convenient. I enjoy the tinkering part of it!
I looked all over and found the only one that looked like it would fit on Amazon. I was skeptical, but after hooking it up it is BRIGHT!!! I actually tilted it down so I don't blind my friends every time I put on my brakes.
