LED shop lighting??’s

OK anyone have any experience with LED shop lights, as in lights to light up a shop?
not a hand held light!

I am looking to add lighting to a work shed 16×20, and want to add LED lighting
trying to decide on what brand lights, what size light’s and HOW many I need to get decent light in it!

after reading a bunch on LED’s I am more lost than I started>
seems like a ton of brands, models and options, running from about 50 bucks to 250 bucks, for like looking lights??

anyone have a make model they LIKE, and any idea HOW many will be needed to light up a 16×20 work space
don’t need it like the SUN either, just decent light , to work on small projects in!

2016 Griz brake problem

Last weekend while riding with a guy that has a 2 week old Grizz Winter Edition. maybe 125 miles on it. Custom wheels and Ripsaws on it.

We just got out of the 6 mile mud run when I noticed his left rear tire was low. We pumped it up dumped soapy water on it looking for the leak. Found a small bead leak.

We then head out to an area with deep water to wash the machines off and to look at the tire better. Part way there his rear end locked up. Could not go forward. Pushed it backward about 20 ft then he able to go forward.Took off for the water Just before the water the rear locked up again and the tire was really low again.

I saw something similar before on a canam. A rock jammed between the caliper and the wheel knocked a 2" hole in the wheel.

We took off he wheel it wasn’t a rock. The caliper mounting bolts had fallen out. The caliper was jamming into the wheel locking it up and cracked the wheel.

Check your caliper bolts. For that matter check all the fasteners.

Big Lift

Hello everyone,

My name is cody and I have a 2015 sportsman 1000 xp, I’m looking to lift it and modify it enough to fit and run a 38" terminator tire under it, does anyone have any experience lifting an atv this much or has anyone done this before? I was think tires, rims, brake lines, a arms, struts/shocks, tie rods, tougher axles, possibly gear reduction hubs? It will be a bit of a long build but I would like to start planning it thank you for any input.

Cody.
