Rugged Radios RZR 800 Build We Need Your Help!!!

Suspension solved! Just got off the phone with Tony @ Racer Tech and he really knows what he is talking about! We decided to go with there RZ6 6 over suspension system. This was an easy decision after talking with Tony. He felt the 6 over would be the best duner and since we live 5 minutes from Pismo Dunes this was the clear choice.

RZR RZ6 +6" Long Travel Kit

We added a few more "Must Have" to our RZR build:

Front Cage Mounts RZR Front Cage Mounts (Roll Cage Pillars)

RZR A Piller Brace RZR Front Cage Mounts (Roll Cage Pillars)

RZR Lower Chassis Support RZR Front Lower Chassis Brace


Everything will be arriving soon so we will post pictures as soon as it gets installed.

If anyone wants to come by and check out there products the office is only 20 minutes from Pismo. We will also be at the Friends of Oceano Dunes Pismo poker run July 4th weekend. Also we will have the Rugged RZR on display at the 2011 Sand Sports Super Show.

Rugged RZR Update!

Positive Ride is working away on project Rugged RZR roll cage. Positive Ride owner TJ (Travis Jecker) is head of design and lead fabricator Mike is doing all the bending and welding. I have to say the pictures do not do it justice. This thing is looking HOT!

I wanted an explorer design and they nailed it. From the clean rear bumper and the long back design it will set us apart from the pack. I just brought over the Baja Designs LED Bar, Fuego HID’s, and killer dome lights for placement and tabs.

Lots of work to go but Mike is on it. It should be wrapped up and ready for powder coat by Saturday.

Note: Need Hand Controls! Positive Ride manufactures custom hand controls. Soon we will be outfitting the Rugged RZR with disabled ready Command Control System. Contact TJ for more information. (805) 459-4409 Positive Ride Machining and Fabrication

The RZR is coming along slowly but steadily! TJ over at Positive Ride has been working on the RZR trying to get it all finished. The roll cage got back from powder coating on Friday and it looks absolutely amazing! Instead of doing just plain black, Greg decided to do a black with blue and silver speckles so it really stands out in the sun. We can’t put the roll cage back on until we have the plastic kit situation figured out, so for right now it’s sitting in our shop waiting to be put on.

The long travel kit from Racer Tech is being put on as we speak! Not only does it look amazing but it’s been going on without any problems. Can’t wait until we can take it out to Pismo and put it to the test! Thanks again Racer Tech

We put the Pro Armor bumper on to see how it looks and looks good! Unfortunately, it will be one of the last things we put on after everything’s completed. The Pro Armor doors were powder coated with the roll cage and are ready to be put on.

Now we’re just trying to figure out our plastic situation! We are doing a deal with RZR Wraps with our colors are white, blue, and black. We’re trying to find a plastic kit for the RZR so we can go from the stock red plastics to some white ones. Does anyone have plastics to trade or know anyone that would be willing to trade? We’re looking for either Full Bore or Maier Plastics!
 
We’ve been making more progress on the RZR Build! Finally got the long travel kit on and installed. It sits higher than we expected which is really cool! Today we’re going to Loctite everything for the long travel kit, build the spare tire rack, and get the brake lines all situated.

Looking good for sure! The suspension will settle a little bit more once you ride it and get some more weight on it. But it does set it up a little higher. But the stability is still there with the longer wheelbase. Keep us posted!
