SXR Conversion Hood Project

Oh man, I know how that phase feels. What are you looking at for steering position height? I feel my SJ bars are a little too low right now. Of course I installed 25mm padding, and I think that 1" + turf is messing me up. Going to try bars with more riser.

i think it was 29? what ever the stock x2 is, that is what I set this at. it seems to be a little taller then the sj but the tray angles back and makes it feel forward standing in the tray flat on the stand. in the water and with the proper angle i think it will be better.

Danm thats cool. It will basically be like having the new X-2, since the bottom hull is the same! Pretty cool Tom.

You must buy bondo by the 5 gal pail..lol
You dont like red hardener? :biggrin:

 

[tom21]

the red - it hurts my eyes! actually I like the cooler blue green bondo, seems easier to see what needs work. that and I am just tired of looking at pink bondo all these years.

 

[tom21]

will be dedicating all my time to this build next week and hope to have it completed and shipped by the weekend. will post pics when its popped.
