Recomended modifications or just good idea's for max owners that like to tinker

[Mike]

As I was surfing through the videos the other day I saw a Max with a twist grip throttle. The guy had installed horizontal grips on his laterals and the twist grip was on the right lateral. It seemed to work really well with the lateral action. I was wondering if any of you have done this recently? What are the things to watch out for?

Most likely that was marc's (jerseybigfoot) Max that you saw. Here is the build thread: http://www.6x6world.com/forums/max-a...v-project.html

That was it. Thanks Mike! Marc did some really cool mods on that one. I like the hand brake and the twist throttle. I haven't had any trouble operating the factory controls, but they do take some getting used to. I don't use the brake hardly at all, but I bet I would use it a little more if it were easier to get at. I find it a little tough to get my foot on the brake when my feet are jammed into the floor in extreme terror, LOL. Actually, I haven't been in a lot of situations, yet, that really require a lot of braking.

All these good ideas and so little time to implement them...
