Working on RZR

Took my RZR to my brothers house and replaced 2 ball joints on drivers side and replaced front brake pads and some bushings on drivers side.Still have to replace some rear bushings tomorrow.Drivers side front axle had no Cir Clip passenger side front axle making a weird noise when you turn it by hand and something is wore out inside the diff from what we can tell what a money pit but I guess with over 6,000 miles it's going to have some wear

I have to work on my Rhino tomorrow, I need to replace the front spindle, tie rod ends and a seal in the rear diff. I only have 2K on mine but I don't think I should have made it look like this on the last ride LOL

That's the thing that sucks about a sxs, it's twice as heavy as a quad with about the same size stuff under it. All those water crossings are hell on wheel bearings and balljoints. The main thing is keep an eye on stuff, and replace it before it leaves you broke down on the trail. Some parts just break instead of wearing out. That's what sucks the worst.

4 wheeler, SXS's... they are always going to cost us money... Sometimes you get tired of $$ that you sink into them but then you go out and have a great ride...

but the will make it all better .

Well had to replace rear brake pads again and rear bushings are done but their is still a lot of play in the rear wheels so more stuff is wore out I guess.Once the Fall Ride is over I may just pull the battery out and let it sit until Spring before I put more money into it

LET IT SIT FOR 5-6 MONTHS!!!!!! Yea right I see that happening.

Well I worked in the Rhino for 9 hours and got a lot done. I replaced the front spindle, changed brake pads all the way around, replaced a seal in the rear diff, replaced an exhaust hanger, changed rear diff fluid, washed it, replaced both rear bearings, both tie rod ends........I am tired!

I love riding but don't like working on them

The nice thing about the extended warranty....

I was told RZR bearings always have a little play to them.

Loose is fast , too loose is broke .

yes, you are right...I jacked mine up and checked the bearings when it was brand new and there was a little play in all the bearings. I do this on all my new machines as to have a starting point on knowing if they are worn or not.
