Hello,
My name is Brenda and I own a 2014 Polaris Sportsman 400 H.O. I mostly ride it around my property and use it for moving wood and plowing our driveway in the snow and other things around the house.
In my spare time, I like to take my lifted Jeep Wrangler offroading.

Tie Rod Lenght 09 Outy 800 max

Anyone know the factory tie rod lengths for an 09 Outlander 800 Max? I got this bike this weekend for a really good deal because it was going into limp mode the tire rod was popping off the ball. I got the limp mode figured out in short order (Selector switch wire was loose) and now I need the Tie rods.

It’s lifted 2.5inches and has 29.5 Outlaw 2’s on it so I need to figure out if its using the stock length or something longer. It looks stock but I don’t want to guess wrong. I need to get these replaced/upgraded so I can get this thing out in the soup!

2001 sportsman 400

My brake system is shot! Neither front or rear works. I had new front brakes done about a year ago and they worked well up until this week. Compress the lever………. No brakes. An entire system for this atv is off the charts price wise, estimates are more expensive than all four brakes on my truck!!!!!! Rear caliper is beyond repair and so is the rotor. Any way to isolate the front brake? To do front and rear is estimated at around $700!!! All registered and insured but can’t ride!

Sanding in the winter?

Winter is coming!

right 😉

i’m going to need to sand our steep hill, think its a 25% slope and the total length of what needs to be sanded is roughly 300m.

has anyone out there had experience with those ‘that sit on the back of the hitch’ sanders?

what about a sander you pull behind the machine, like this one?

i want whatever i get to be able to spread sand and small gravel stones so it needs to be adjustable, depending upon the size of the material.

am grateful for any experienced snow removal folk to chip in.

When is the best time to buy

Hey guys so I’m in the market for a outlander Max XT, I’ve already found a great dealer to work with but now I have a huge dilemma. Right now Can Am is only offering either a $800 rebate or a $500 rebate and 2 year warranty so I’m thinking take the warranty but the dealer suggested that if I can handle the wait that they usually have better sales events. So now I have a Sophie’s choice do I take the current promo on a ’16 650 Max XT or roll the dice and hope they come out with a better fall sales event.

Thanks guys
