Talk about frustrated!! Trailing arm removal problems…

Well it’s been awhile since I’ve posted or been on here period.. So last ride I did the normal overview of my bike to make its good or if anything needs to be replaced. Right rear wheel bearing has some play. Ok I thought, no big deal.. Got a new bearing get everything apart and get to the removal of the spanner nut where the trailing arm bearing is.. Cemented in, yep, I removed the snap ring, yep, I tried heating it up, a lot and yep, I tried every possible air gun, electric impact, pry bar etc.. Even made a new socket for it think it will have more bite. Not a budge.. Wtf do I do now.. I replaced the left side trailing arm bearing before and was able to get it with an impact. This right side is stuck. I even thought it might be reverse thread and still got nothing. I’ve been working at it for a couple weeks now.. I’m out of ideas.

2007 grizzly 660

Hello im new to the site . Im hoping for some help here . I have a 2007 grizzly 660 that is turning over hard ,ive put a new battery and solenoid . I have checked all wires and connections and it all looks good . When you hit the starter button it clicks at the solenoid so i pull on the backup pull start until it releases compression and then hit the button and it will roll and start . I would appreciate any ideas on what to try next . Thanks

Help with drive axle coupler !!!

Any part #’s or even a pic would be a big help. Thanks

Jetting issue

Ok so I’m trying to figure out what’s wrong here, I just put a 130 pilot jet in and it has a 40 slow jet all this with a dg exaust and uni air filter. What it’s doing is bogging like crazy. Will start and move but after about 3 mins it bogs terribly and makes 0 power.

Outlander L Tail Lights

Found these 2" LED Reflectors on Ebay for $5 a pair plus free shipping! they come from China and took about 2 weeks but they are nearly perfect to replace the stock reflectors on the rear of the L Model. I had to drill the screw hole just a hair and drill a hole for the wiring behind the reflector and tapped into the brake/parking light. I did file the edge of the reflectors just a little to seat them perfectly in the reflector housings. I went with the green for my Zombie Theme. The brake light function is not much brighter than the running light function, but I still love it for the price! They have blue, red, amber, white and green and I think purple. The reflectors are clear when not in use.

2004 Sportsman 500 CV boot replacement

Did a 2 inch front lift on my ATV. Everything seemed fine till I rode it. Didn’t notice the drive axle had slipped out of the strut. Tore the boot, haven’t disassembled the front end yet to see if there is any other damage. Any tips or tricks to replacing the boot? anything I need to look for when I remove the axle? Any recommended maint or upgrades while I have it tore down?
