I have a 13 scrambler 850 limited edition with a busted front diff. Input plate broke, took out a couple gears and messed up the case where the bearing goes. Anyways, I was trying to find one cheaper than the $1500 they cost and came across a couple diff part numbers that I was told would work. First is 1333392 for a 2015 sportsman that I’m told is the same except it has adc which just wouldn’t be used. It’s brand new but I see that year sportsman had issues with a plastic cage in the diff and has been replaced with a new part number. Kinda messed up that shops are selling these as overstocked items with no warning of the issue.
2nd one is 1333391 for a 2015 scrambler. Will this still work in a 2013 and did these have the same plastic cage issue as the one in the 2015 sportsman? They are both new and around 1/2 the price, if I have to I can change the cage I guess, and I have the thicker input plate already to install on the new diff.
