Textron/Bad Boy Recoil EV IS
 
I picked up my 2017 Recoil yesterday :thumbup:.. Now the fun of accessorizing.
Ordered a front rack last night
Thinking 26x9-12 front 26x12-12 rear
2" wheel spacers
gun and bow racks of course
some LED driving lights up front since the factory ones leave a lot to be desired, ,,,
Suggestions, opinions? Help me pimp my ride :mrgreen:

congrats on the new toy. If you figure out how to hook up the lights let me know. There is suppose to be a 12volt accessory box somewhere so you can hook up stuff like lights etc. Keep in mind you can't go directly to a battery as they are 8volts and not 12.

The dealer mentioned the 12v hook up but I was too dumb to ask where it was. :lhmo:
He had a used one on the lot where everything was tied in to two of the 8v making it a 16v system. He said the 12v lights and winch had no problem with the 16v

Ok that's interesting as I didn't know that. May check it out this weekend thanks. Also if you go with aftermarket wheels you might consider offset wheels versus spacers. If you keep same wheels then just go with spacers. The only downside to either is getting a little mud on you when going through nasty areas. Also as a plus the wider stance will make the cart more stable on side hills.

I'm researching fender flares, I know i've seen some universal type that'll fit the rear wheel well and it looks like the front should be ok.

Yes a standard bulb made for 12 volts will work at 16 but not for long. Just look around for some leds that run at higher voltage and replace the factory ones first with those. They use 884 bulbs but most of the 88 series will work and less heat.

LOL. Didnt even notice that. Maybe the moderator can move it to the lifted cart section or better yet make a specific forum for 4x4 off road carts. :)
