Just thought I would keep ya'll updated on the latest Sand Devil mods I have been doing. Got the head shaved 0.020. There's a pic of the new pipe installed. Added some RCI harnesses. Made some roll bar pads along with painting the light bar. Oh, also added some ITP XCT Holeshots to the rear. CLMNZ and I have found that the dirt tires run way better in the sand than the paddles. It doesn't lug the motor down when running dirt tires. They keep spinning. Hopefully the extra width will keep these things afloat better than the crappy stocker tires and it won't sink as easily. We are headed out next week to try em.

Sweet! Thanks Twister.

Theo, they are off of an 04 YFZ450. They are way better than stock, but still too stiff. I need to put lighter springs in them. I also have the fronts. The fronts are freakin awesome. Words cannot describe it. I gained over 2 inches in the front with them and I can slam a G-out and it just sucks it up!

Thanks newubggier. It's great to share my progress with people who appreciate it. The wife just says yeah it looks great, but it isn't the same.

The rear shocks on your buggy are the rear shocks off a yfz450 and the front on your buggy are the fronts of a yfz450, am I right? theo

Love your Holeshots, and RCI seatbelts. Both are looking great. Did you have to cutt your seatbelts to proper length with a hott knife?

No, they are adjustable.

Correct on the shocks Theo
