  • Fog light relay

    Quote from FunCycle

    @slingmods did not even offer a fog light kit when I bought mine from them. I think I was the first one they made up the kit for me.



    What are the jumper harnesses for????? I'm planning on making my own, if I was close to my ss I'd go check it out but I'm a few hundred miles from the ss.....

  • Switches!!!

    Scored these off ebay, guy was asking 20.00 a switch, made a offer of 5.00 per switch and seller pays shipping, he aggred!!! Score! There only single throw but they will work fine for me, best part...... when installed in the panel they say......"ZO" LOL




    Thought about painting them but I've never seen anyone on here with "zo" switches hahaha.

  • Fog light relay

    I'm sure this has been covered, but I was digging through my box at work and found this in a old fuse box from a Avalanche. Seems like it will do the trick, just wanted to share my findings.


  • Led lighting help

    My head no longer hurts! I think I get it, so in all reality I just need a good amp controller. Is there anything else that would be needed between the controller and the strips?

  • Led lighting help

    Lol I'm kinda hoping he chimes in :) I'm no stranger to electrical systems but I'm only familiar with testing and repairing existing systems. If this was installing a turbo or rebuilding the tranny or trouble shooting data lines I'd have no problem :)

  • Aftermarket tire rollup (poll)

    I'm about 3500 to 4k miles on my rear 555 and love it I will be installing 555 on the fronts when the kendas wear out, total mileage is around 9800. The new has wore off so I'm expecting milage will be lower on the next tire lol.


    Only con I can even think of is damp roads, super slick.

  • Led lighting help

    Hello all!!


    I've been doing ALOT of reading about led lighting, I've also determined that it really isn't as simple as it sounds, with forward voltage and thermal meltdown ect.... so I'm asking all of my fellow slingers for some help. I will have a max of 4 or 5 16'5" strips, 3 for under the ss and some random accent lighting and 1 strip for cabin. I'm going to remove what body parts as need be removed for a professional install. With all that said what items will i need to do a proper rgb 5050 install? "Not tools but actual led equipment" I would like to have separate control exterior and interior lighting. I've always installed leds on all my bikes just by a simple switch and hooking to the battery, but that was a one color strip and it didn't matter if it lasted very long or how much voltage they drew because of how easy it was to change them, with the sling I'd like to not have to take it apart more than needed. I have aux fuse box and factory style switches already "please don't ask what brand lol I'm a amazon and ebay guy, I try to support our venders but I'm a slinger on a budget" oh and while your reading this how did yall route all your wiring? Thanks for any and all advise in advance.

  • Who has powder coated parts?

    Quote from Gonfast38

    I've had my brakes done along with some other parts. Swingarm, coil pack cover and I currently have all my front suspension getting done, all in purple. I should have my control arms and spindles back today or tomorrow.



    Did u have to remove the bushings and ball joints for coating?

  • Who has powder coated parts?

    Quote from rabtech

    Everyone probably has some parts that are powder coated. What are you looking for in particular?



    Nothing in particular, my sling is tore apart and looking for ideas, my buddy does coating and said he would hook me up if i bought the powder. Can't do big items like swingarm but most other stuff can fit. With that said where's the best "cheapest" place to buy powder?


    BTW as of now my sling is about as stock as it can get, I can't afford to do huge mods but I'd like to set it apart from every other red one out there, it will get paint eventually but I may not pick a color for awhile, I'd say I'm a impulse modder, I'll wake up one day and spray it.
