PVC Spring Spacer

I am looking at this as an option to help with ground clearance when riding two up on my 570. I was thinking HD springs, but a person mentioned this option and I have no idea how it works and how to do it.

Has anyone ever done this? Anyone have instructions on how to do it? Any disadvantages or risks of doing this? Does it have to be PVC? Can it be steel pipe?

Interested to hear your opinions and experiences.

Changing the brake pads

Quick question, doing my first brake change on my Outty, and I have done car brakes before, do the brakes need to be bled after changing the pads? Or is it just a simple push the pistons back in put the new pads on and bolt it all back together?

Thanks!!

Outlander Diff Nightmares??

I have a 2016 Outlander L 570 with roughly 150 miles on it. A few of my friends and even my brother are all buying new Can-Ams because they love mine so much!

I have been doing some research about the rear differentials and even the gearbox’s prematurely failing… Like quads with less than 500 miles on them. I am slightly concerned about this because it seems like its a common problem. If this thing is supposed to break diffs every 500 miles, then i’m going to sell it.

I figured i would ask the real owners and see what you guys think.

How many miles do you guys have on stock driveline components?

How likely is it that i will soon be replacing my diff or gearbox?

Thanks guys!
