What could cause a cam chain to jump a tooth on a new engine, less than 750 miles on 2015 ??? :gcrules:
Spring spacer for plow use vs. heavier spring
Hello and glad to be here, I have a 2016 570 touring eps and was wondering if the spring spacers for the front would even make a notable difference when using a plow. Obviously, the front end dips when lifting the plow, but will the spacer (even with two per side) really be worth the purchase on a new machine? I see that Polaris advertises the lighter spring rate now to improve ride, so should the obvious be to go with the stiffer spring, or just let it go and use the stock springs for all they’re worth till later? :unitedstates:
More Steering/ Driving Problems
2 weeks ago, the front bolt snapped off my left A-arm on my ’03 Sportsman. Drove it less than 300 yards (up a small hill to my yard, and parked alongside my garage). The old bushing/ sleeve didn’t want to come apart, so I bought a new one. Installed part, and did an alignment—though I’m not certain it’s 100% correct yet. Steering doesn’t seem right, and a bit of a clicky/ grindy sort of noise coming from the front. I’ve also noticed the front left driveshaft outside boot wants to twist on the shaft. Does this help anyone help me? Did I tear up the bearings by driving it? I don’t do a lot of trail riding, it’s main job is pushing snow in the winter., which is coming up fast. Thanks for any help.

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.

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!
