Project 2006 Sportsman 500 EFI: Upgrading the Front Diff - Aluminum Sprague and New Armature Plate
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 сен 2024
- Recently the front dif began slipping under power, so I decided to upgrade the weak OEM sprague to an aluminum one. The old armature plate gets replaced as well. This is not the "Super ATV" kit, but a cheaper kit ordered online. Time will tell if its a pass or a fail.
Waiting on my parts. I have a 06 450. Same issue. Looks easy. For someone like us that works on shit for a liven.
I have the same machine and had the same thing done to mine last year by a local shop and just noticed this past weekend that there is a noise coming from the front diff when in 2 wheel drive; not when in AWD. I suspected an issue so elevated all 4 wheels off the ground and put in 2WD drive. All 4 wheels spin. I could stop the two fronts and they would spin free (neutral) for a few seconds and than "clunk" they would engage again like as if they were in AWD (4x4). Think she has to come apart again. Have you had any more issues? Any ideas ? Good video by the way. Thank you from NB
the 2008 EFI 500 sprotman polaris model. The engine works very well in the cold, but when it warms up it sometimes stops. What could he have?
I've got a similar unit Magnum 330 4x4. Last yr had a lower ballpoint give way and flipped me end over end. Broke the left shock, axle and stripped the treads off the ball joint. Any how, had a front differential issue 2yrs ago and paid a guy 325.00 to fix it, but issue returned within a couple months. At that time hecked the oil in the differential and about a tablespoon of water came out, so I just put more oil in it to get thru the season. Now, just getting around to fix it and disassembled it today. Yours was in much better shape than mine. Needle bearing in middle, gone. Coil came apart and wiring was wound around the insides. I'm in Lousiana and the red dirt is like powder, I could feel the grit inside the unit. My question to you is, was it worth it, to try and salvage it? I had already got the bearing kit , 80 bucks. But a coil and a cage with rollers are as much as a used unit. How is yours holding up? I think I'm gonna try a used unit.
I have put over a thousand miles on mine since that rebuild. I have recently changed the fluid again and there is no sign of any contamination, dirt, water or metal. That being said, although mine was cruddy, the main components were not damaged. I am in Newfoundland, Canada and we have a lot of bog and mud. That red dirt sounds like sandpaper on components. If I was in your situation, I would probably try to get either a used unit or another parts quad. There is more cost to rebuilding yours with the coil shagged up and may cause you more trouble than its worth.
I have a polaris sportsman 500 model 2008 and I discovered that it does not engage 4 × 4 in reverse. What could he have?
4x4 in reverse (on a Polaris) is only engaged by holding down the yellow override button on the left handgrip. This, according to Polaris, is a safety feature. If it still does not engage when holding down the button, but 4x4 works fine going forward, there could be an electrical problem with the button/harness itself. Make sure the wire harness at the base of the handgrip switch is fully connected by pushing and wiggling the connector and wires a bit.

Hello!
I come to you with another request!
I have another problem with polaris. It does not indicate on board when it is in stage P (parking) nor when it is in R. Sometimes only R appears to me in reverse, when the lever is pulled on P parking, and when it is in P it does not show anything. I checked the sensor and it's ok. I also checked the resistor module by putting, making a bridge directly and it still doesn't show on my watch. I mention that H-L and N work. Is it possible that the clock is faulty? How can I make it work? Thank you in advance!
