My 99 recon’s rear axle was moving side to side so I ordered a bearing kit. Worked out a trade with a guy for the bearing replacement and he calls and tells me that the axle nut was loose and that the bearings look good. After he got it all together I ride it for a few days with a 25 gallon spray rig on the back and notice the axle started to move again. The axle nuts were loose and so I broke the jam nut off and tightened it up and snugged up the jam nut. A few days later the same thing happend. So what do y’all think? Bearing?

I have a 216 Honda 420 does anybody run intimidators? Pics?

And will 26.5 intimidators look bad with a 2 in lift?

When decelerating my 2010 Rene 500 makes a clicky sound. It sounds a little like anti-lock brakes. It also sounds a little like bb’s rattling in a can. I suspect it is normal but I thought I should ask. It isn’t loud and if I wear earplugs, like I usually do, I still hear it.

Hey one and all. Been a little while since I posted here, but I had a question about something I noticed on the front end of my quad.

When I turn the bars to the stops to the right, there is ~1" between the inside of the right wheel and the back of the lower A-arm.
However, when I turn the bars to the left to the stops, there isn’t near as much room between the inside of the left wheel and the back of the lower A-arm; in fact the wheel will contact the A-arm with very little force placed on the wheel.

I’ve adjusted the tie-rods to equal length, both wheels at 0 toe. The hubs are good, the frame is great, but I’ve noticed that even when I’m traveling in a straight line, the bars are at a slight left turn. Holding them straight causes the quad to drift to the right. I tried dialing that out with tie rod adjustments, but it’s still noticeable. Any one component that could cause this?? I don’t think replacing the whole front set-up is necessary.

I should mention that it has an aftermarket steering stem (anti-vibe). I’m wondering if maybe the stem is twisted?
Anyways, that’s what I wanted to ask on here. Any and all input from the good people of this forum is greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Ed

Hello Polaris Forum members, I look forward to learning more about Polaris ATVs. At this point, I will be using my 2014 Sportsman 400HO for a hunting ride and for refilling deer feeders. I found a machine with less than 50 miles on it and 24 hours on the engine. Can’t wait to learn more about it through the experience of the forum members. I suspect my interest will expand, such as trail riding, etc.
