Hi Charles. I buy alot from you guys & you have good videos on how to DIY. I see you are using tranny fluid the 2010 & newer XP 900 /1000 use gear oil 80w90 in the tranny.
correction. you will possibly need more than a punch to remove the snorkel gear. after bearings shred and metal shavings build up behind the threads. causing a build up and binding effect.
Roller bearings are better for heavy loads whereas ball bearings are better suited for higher speeds, and since it had plenty of oil in it, looks to had been over loaded due to shift of traction putting a heavy torque or shock load on it, looks like a bad design that needs to be changed out for roller type bearings. I've seen a bunch of these Polaris transmissions in a huge pile at the dealer near me.
What's the year and model? If a circlip was on there at disassembly, it should probably go back on at assembly. I'd check the model specific service manual or at least a parts diagram if you aren't sure. -Charles
I think that repeat bearing failure is the result of the bearing being subjected to excessive side thrust from the fact that the angle of the gear teeth are opposite of each other on that shaft instead of the same like the rest of the shafts and because of this the side thrust is being close to doubled instesd of nearly canceled out like it is on the other shafts with the gear teeth angles cut in the same direction. I still cant figure out why they went with opposite angles on that third shaft. If they choose to keep that design then they should have a dedicated thrust bearing to support the load as it has been made clear that the existing ball bearing is not up to the task... Food for thought...
What is the real cause of that particular bearing to fail??? Had my 16 xp4 1000 fail at 3500 miles, rebuilt with all 12 skf bearings, 2 shafts andn2 gears polaris and right half case from super atv, 2200 miles later same bearing failed again, it is not any kind of lube issue or eveyone would be having the same problem, example have a buddy that has a 15 xp 1000 with right around 8000 miles no problem. Anyone found the real root cause of it? I am in the process of doing a failure and analysis of bearing and some measuring of the cases, I am super impressed with super atv cases in the fact its thicker then stock and contained all failed parts. Edit: I did reuse factory left half case first time and replaced both halves with super atv second rebuild

I'm curious as to what caused the bearing to go and to come through the casing like that

Is there meant to be a circlip behind the secondary clutch? My secondary clutch also looks different.
Thank you!

Now I see why god didn’t make me a mechanic. All those gears giving me anxiety
