I just finished making my pinion cover. I made it out of T6061 aluminum. I installed and tested it today. It worked great. The cover is as big as I could make it. The tie rod almost touches it when turned all the way to the right. I machined out the bottom right corner to clear the A arm bolt cap. When I was reverse engineering he pinion cover I noticed porosity in 4 different spots. No WONDER so many are breaking. Polaris really let us down putting such a cheap part on there high HP machines.

Hey guys, I just bought an immaculate 2011 Grizzly garage kept machine with 265 miles. It has a few scratches but looks like it’s never seen any mud, everything is stock including the tires. I’ve never ridden an automatic ATV of any make until now. The top speed on this 350 is about 42 but even at lower speeds it sounds like its working too hard. The only thing I can compare the sound to is a 5 speed utility 4 stroke ATV that you need to up-shift to a taller gear. It doesn’t sound like its running wide open all the time, just that its working too hard for the speed its going. Any thoughts?

I have a 2016 Honda 420 straight rear axle and I’m looking for increased throttle response, would I get a dyno chip? Should I get a k&n? Please help!

ok so i have a 2014 sportman 550 eps touring and i’m gonne get new tires for it.
its completely stock. stock tires are 26x9x14 and 26x10x14

What i’m wondering is will these tires fit stock wheels and without rubbing or needing clutch work, tires i’m getting is Mudlite xl 27x10x14 and 27x12x14
cause these are cheap, lightweight and can hold some miles..

Was also thinking about 28” but worrying about killing the clutch/belts when pulling heavy trailers with me..

i’m mostly doing trails that’s of dirt/rocks and mud for hunting and fishing so these tires will fit my riding of what others are telling…

Thanks for any freedbacks and don’t mind some wrong spelling:tounge-in-cheek:

Just bought my first Grizzly, and only my second ATV ever. A fairly clean 2013 550 machine…only needs a few things to be perfect for what I need (trail riding).

Look forward to learning from you guys…and contributing where I can…which probably will be more learning and little to no contributing!

Hello all, Just bought my first 4×4 quad. 2006 Grizzly 400. Ive been riding and fixing 450s sport quads for years and finally decided to get a 4×4.
I was looking over my new purchase and noticed gas was leaking the petcock on the tank. Well I fixed that issue then realized the choke was NOT sitting properly into the carb. It was out a little bit so I pushed it in all the way.. I go to start and cranks won’t start. I am turning the choke on and off and it sometimes starts and shuts off. Sometimes idles a little longer than other times. I can give it gas and it will run but sounds like its starving for fuel..

I cleaned out the carb today and still have the same issue.. It will start but shuts off a few seconds later. The plug is nice and wet with gas…

Any ideas what Im missing ??? choke not working properly??

Thank you

Hi I joined the forum last year and had some great advice fixing up a Foreman ES, since found a 350 Fourtrax (Rancher) not sure what year it is as the sticker was damaanged, not sure where the frame is stamped lots of mud on it still shape is 2000-2006 Lots of work

With 20 hours on the new Grizzly. I wanted to do the engine, rear and front differential oil change.

Mistankly filled rear diff to the top of the filler plug without taking off check level plug.

So, I opened Check level plug and of course it’s and endless supply of oil coming out.
Should I just drain it completely or wait over night for it to level off from the level plug?

Plus now I can put in Gold drain plugs

Anybody know about this type of wheel? It looks motorcycle to me. I really need some!
