So I have many plans for my 2006 Apex over the summer. Its time for a suspension overhaul. Here are my summer mods I have planned for mine:
Rail Extension (undecided, 2 courses of action)
-Muffin Works(COA 1)
TIp Up Extension 144"
Tunnel Extension
Cobra 1.352 track
-Tracks USA Cobra 1.352 144" Package (COA 2)
-Marginal Snow Wheel Kit
-Ulmer 23t upper gear
-Ulmer Stage 3 Clutch Kit
-2" Rox Risers
-Low Windshield
-Rox Powermadd Handguards
-Muffinworks Beefup Kit
-Monoshock Solenoid
-Monoshock Revalve
So far I have replaced my idler wheels, with ones that have replaceable bearings. I will slowly poke away at all the above mods, and if everything goes well they will all be completed by the time the snow comes.
So whats everyone else doing? And how far have you made it so far?

Hartman 144 rail extensions, 151 tunnel extension, new 144 ripsaw(got it for a song and dance), all ohlins rebuilt/revalved, rear suspension bushing kit, studs.... then i have to do exhaust gaskets on the RTX, wheels bearings.... phazer needs studs, wife wants exhaust..... list goes on!!!
New cobra track, new micro belmont driveshaft with new extro's. All driveline bearings. New pioneer wheel kit. Mono shock freshen-up and revalve(maybe heavier spring). 4th wheel kit on rear. Rear tunnel cooler addition. install starter saver. Freshen both clutches....replace springs for sure. Maybe a moutain riser and grab bar?? Crap, this sled is going to break me. $1500 last year, now $1000 this summer. Hopfully it will be very solid for another 7,000 miles with minimal expense after this summer.

I'm thinking a PC5 and air box mod on my 2011 SE. Might even polish up the tunnel?? Still not sure about studding.

Plans over the summer will be going to a Powderlites turbo, boost-it fuel system.
It looks fast just sitting there.
