    Other 05-16 F250/350 icon vehicle dynamic shocks

    I have a used set of icon vehicle dynamics shocks that came off my 08 F250 with a 2.5” leveling kit. Shocks are used and all need a rebuild. Fronts are 2.5” piggybacks rears are 2.0 IFP’s.

    Polaris What's a good half or full windshield?

    I have a jagged X with roof and utv inc BMF bumper and would like something to keep the wind off me in the winter. The bumper clamps on the A pillar so I would probably have to modify it.

    Why 3/8's isn't enough!

    Went to do an oil change and admiring all the scars on my FUTV skids and saw this 1/4" deep beauty! Seems to be holding up well for all the rocks we crawl. So if you're thinking 3/8's is enough to do a lot of crawling might want to think again.

    Kawasaki Wife wants 4 seats I wanted 2, so T4?

    So I have been dead set on a maverick for a long time, but the wife wants a 4 seater. I have been reading a lot about the t4's and am very intrigued. I like the shorter wheelbase of the t4 compared to an xp4 or mav4. How well of a performer is this thing all around? The only utv I has spent time...
