yeah i picked up this honda foreman the other day
yeah it's a o2 it's the manual shift model pretty good shape i had the idea of
turning this four-wheeler into like kind of like a side-by-side so putting like a roof
or windshield right up over there and then a roof over the top of it and then a little
back and then a little spot to hold two kids in the back so i don't know it's just an idea i
had so see how stupid it'll look when it's done but this is what i'm starting out with right here
the first thing i did cut out these
base plates cut them out of plywood 5 8 inch kind of cut them to form around the seats
and it's kind of flush with the back this one hangs over more because
this rack's smaller but yeah i think it'll be fine they're both the same width
so i'm making this thing out of wood because i don't know i know how to use wood so all right
that's what i did first all right we tested out the back got some i'll probably have to
cut those down but we just put some two by fours into that let's drill them into the bottom so it
looks like it'll fit two youngsters in the back test number one complete just working on the front
get some two by fours up there then try to find the right angle for the roof probably probably cut
it down a little more so all right step three all right i got the front ones on and the back ones on
and then kind of mocking up where i want the top rails to go so i used two by fours for the post
and then i got two by threes for the top so trying to kind of make her level here
and there i don't know doing the best i can so kind of got the height i like
um yeah i'll give you measurements later when i get it all finalized but so far so good
all right kind of gotta where i want it uh the front poles right there
35 inches back ones uh the back is 39 so it's kind of got a forward slant and i put these on
what cut that at 15 degree angle so it's kind of angling back and it's kind of slanted forward so
yeah when i sit on there it's got a couple like three or four inches of headroom in there so i
don't know see if that's good enough so next i'm gonna just anchor it down there with some
u-bolts and then uh probably work on putting the top on so yeah it's looking good so far
it's a quick update i put these little side things on there for support of the roof and i
got uh the back panels up i did 14 inches in the back and eight inches in the front to probably
make a little panel around the rest but so far i think i'm gonna work on putting the roof on i
actually didn't attach it to the four-wheeler yet because it's nice to be able to move it around
and be able to work on it when it's not attached yet so i'll probably just attach it at the end
yeah here's the bag i did it flush to there so yeah seems to be working all right all right
got the old roof on up there um i just used quarter inch plywood no know just
something lightweight all right we'll see how it works i got the roof on there and i
threw a couple supports on up there i got two supports there and then it's nice when i sit on
there so i got a couple inches of headroom so i kind of think it's the height's pretty good right
there but yeah so making some good progress i'm gonna try to it's got some plexiglass
i'm gonna try to fabricate something to put that on there so that's what i'm working on next here
all right i think i'm pretty much done with the construction
of this got the window wells made to fit 30 by 36 plexi glass the roofs all attached
made the back so it could fit the same size plexi glass in the back
yeah the roof's looking good yeah it feels pretty sturdy solid um i've not attached it yet to the
atv but next i'm gonna sander and then take her to the paint booth and paint it i'm not quite sure
what color i want to paint it thinking black maybe some green accents i don't know we'll see but yeah
so far so good here we go we just primed her now we're gonna be painting our black
we just decided to go with black so all primed and probably do a couple coats of black
and we'll be pretty much done you have fun yeah yeah you're doing good keep her up
all right here's pretty much the final product here i got everything painted i got
front windshield on just used some plexiglass and some you know screws threw a washer in there
so yeah i'll see how that holds up i drove around a little bit it seems to hold up just fine
there's this side yeah yeah i think it looks pretty cool
i did bolter in there i used some u-bolts
one two two on that side two on this side and then here's the front did two on each side again
so yeah it moves the whole thing once you rock it back and forth so
and here's the back washers
yeah i like it i did drive it around a little bit and it is a bit louder
being enclosed like that so maybe i'll do another video of me driving around
maybe i'll i'll add up how much everything costs i'll see how much adding one of those
would cost you but yeah i like it kind of it's kind of like a poor man's side-by-side
all right well there you go
