i replaced my lights with kc 55 watt bulbs. They fit right into the housing without any mods

55w Ice Blue H-3 Halogen Bulb #2762

Bulb 35w H3 Halogen KC #2550

the only problem i had with doing the is i had to separate the roof lights into pairs with a switch of thier own

my speedo hasn't worked since i welded the fenders on. i tried a new ecu and it still didn't work.

the snow is all gone in the crowsnest pass but there is still a lot of snow up on the rocks.

the snowpack is 178" yet, a little over 14feet

i live here in calgary

what upgrades should a person do to his 08 ?

i have put foa shocks on my beast and did some welding on it to improve the mudslinger

i also installed better lights in this thing 100 watt kc bulbs

what upgrades should a person do to his 08 ?

i have about 928 miles on mine but the spedo hasn't worked in 2 years .

so your guess is as good as mine as to how many miles are on this thing .

i am heading for bc this weekend to torture it some more.

dodge neon rims bolt right on , i slapped on a set with snow tires and really found out how fast these thing really are

its not that bad it only snows about 4 months of the year there is about 18"on the ground here and it is currently -14 outside

it is fun to play in and the ice is great fun too

when i took those pictures i noticed the shock seal were leaking

i have more pictures in the photo gallery which may be a better place to see them

here are some new pics

Does anyone know of a interchange for the Commando 2006 Head Light bulbs. I have emailed Silver Bullet and am waiting for there response but some of you are pretty savy in finding other stuff that works. Also the ones that are in it are 35/35 watt, can i replace these with 45/45 watt. Also any ideas on new headlight lenses.

i have replaced the stock bulbs for kc day lighters bulbs they are 10 bucks for 130 watt. the only thing you will have to do is rewire your lights on the roll bar.

the nice thing about these they are great for night riding . with all 6 lights on the person in front of you will be able to catch a tan at 20 feet out and also not have to worry

about being cold

kc does sell lower wattage bulbs but i am one of those guys that think " go big or go home"

i also had to separate the lights into pairs with relays. the factory switches just cant handle the amp draw

i also purchased kc clear lense covers for all these bad boys the fit right onto the trooper lights

i ordered 8 130 watt light bulbs for my unit and slapped them in.

not a good idea at first .

i melted the fuses right to the fusebox

i had to run 4 separate relays and install a fuse box just for the lights .

i was in my trooper at night and being able to see half a mile with ease , i jumped into a rino with factory lights and it was scarry doin 65 at nightin that thing

we were barely able to see 50 feet or so .

with my lights night diving is fun. i had a lad in front of me on a quad and he could feel the heat on the his back about 50 to 75 feet in front of me .

i have factory housings on the roof with kc 130 watt bulbs i moved my lower head lights under the hood next to the winch .

they are now kc titaniums, since i ripped one off when they were up high

the cost of the ice blue bulbs were about 10$ a piece

the fuse box was 3$ from scrap yard

the relays are 30 amp and are 6$ a piece

well worth the price

has anyone used elka suspension shocks i am looking at them

i ordered foa and i am not impressed at all with that product at all

i had to change my mounting brackets

i have contacted elka and they are going to give me a quote today

can't take any good pictures today it is snowing again

i was traveling down the road at about 4500 rpm and i lost oil pressure.

and she over heated real fast . pulled over and found i had lots of oil.

it wasn't burnt . i run royal purple

after i had let her cool off all was fine

any ideas on what would cause this problem?

i had a electrical problem with mine

found that the conectors under the ecu were full of green death and a couple of weather shields had pulled out .

with further inspection the a couple of wires had coroded apart .

i just removed all those conectors and shrinked wrapped them

did some welding on mine extended flairs out 7" past side and put a step on the side to reach the roof.

front plastic is gone

moved front head lights underneath next to winch slapped on checker plate on the front and roof .

removed air shocks on rear deck and replace with heavy cloth bungy straps from a safety harness

i just ripped out my front cv joints on the front end .

there are no retainer rings on the hub end which is strange

there were rings on the diff end

i also found 2 different size bearings in the same cv joint

so i have ordered both front axles which may take a while

are there any jambories in canada planned

like southern alberta or sw bc

where is the speed sensor on a trooper

and how do you test?

the nearest dealer is 4+ hours away

a friend was having a powerloss problem with the same symptoms. we changed out the fuel filter dumped injector cleaner into her .

and changed out the bad fuel. found that the fuelpump was being starved. something had jelled up in the filter

i have a new problem. my alt will not charge unless i induce 12volts to the white wire briefely . with the engine running before i induce power she reads 2.78 volts

after i induce voltage she jumps to 14 volts .

i changed out the alt. thinking the voltage reg was cooked . that didn't solve the problem

any ideas on what the problem might be .

also my spedo doesn't work, when she does the diagnostic it stokes but does not read speed at all

in my opinion foa shocks piss poor

i wont put them on my trooper

they are sitting in the corner here

service is non existant cant phone anyone

in my opinion foa shocks are not worth the hassle service is piss poor . no phone number

it takes for ever to receive them ,just over a month

when they did show up the heim joint was way to small 12mm stock is 15mm

finish is low end while it is in the lathe they could run some sand paper over them

i was reading a post on a site and it seemed that they have a high emp, turn over

i will not put this junk on my trooper
