Another clutch question
I should have documented my Kodiak rebuild, it has been become quite a saga for me and one heck of a learning curve, but fun all the same.
I have put the old girl up on stands for the summer to do some repairs, I knew my drive belt was getting worn, on my last ride it was slipping a lot before it would drive, I found the belt was an even 1" wide, min measurement is 1.18", so that is stuffed.
I decided I would dismantle the clutch and overhaul that as well, I found it was bone dry inside with no indication that it was ever greased! The outer ring of the rollers has flat spots where it has been sliding rather than rolling, the inner weights(?) are OK with no marks.
Question-can I buy just the outer rings or do new rollers from Partzilla come as a pair of an inner weight and outer roller?
Any other suggestions where I can buy the parts?

I was really impressed how well this Kodiak went with these worn bits so I look forward to having it in action with new drive bits, I may not have bothered but I will fit a 1mm clutch shim washer while it is all apart, this thing will be unstoppable.

570 xmr winch
Hey folks, new here. Picking up a 2016 570 XMR tomorrow. Wanna get a winch and skid plates on it right away. Looking at this winch https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0034ZUZM6…vert-amazon-20 Will it fit ok? Pretty easy to mount? I believe it comes pre-wired. Any tips? Thanks
Hello
Hello, picking up a 16 570 XMR tomorrow. This will be my first 4 wheeler as I am a dirtbike guy. Have a few toys 07 KTM 450 exc, 13 Harley fatboy and a 96 vette. Looking forward to the atv. I’m 55 and most of my friends I ride with are on atv’s so figured I would join in the fun. Get ready for a lot of dumb questions. LOL

What years are the same?
I just got a 1990 trx300fw fourtrax 4wd. It looks identical to my step dad’s 1994, but when I’m looking at parts, many things say 93+ etc. So I’m curious what year ranges are actually the same. Thanks!

Hello ol’ man winter
It’s been an unusually warm and dry start to the winter season. Yesterday, it was a record setting 80 degree, sunny drive home from work. Today, not so much…
timing
checked valves and noticed fly wheel pointer and camshaft pointer do not align on their marks at same time looks like my cam is retarded one tooth, I am pretty sure both my 09’s lined up at same time. Can anyone give me an answer on this ??? what could cause this to happen or did someone in the factory fck up on this???? :gcrules:
