Polaris RZR Starter rebuild kit

I went by world class today to see if Polaris made the rebuild kit for the starter. They do not. I guess it is in the aftermarket.

Does anyone know of a good website to get the rebuild kit from? Anyone have any experience with their rebuild kit?

Thanks in advance!

I ordered 5 starters today...that way if someone is at the wagon wheel when it goes out i will have some I may deliever

T-bone...from the way mine did and others have done...I think you could just have a front bushing machined to take place of the front needle bearings and clean it up and put it back together. At least it would make for a good spare.

At a boy James...Keep up the good work.........how about if I run out of beer and pizza on the trail...will you still deliver?

Well I have seen some rebuild kits for 30 dollars. This old starter needs new bearings and also brushes. The rest will clean up with some brake cleaner.

I am going to rebuild it and throw it in the parts bin when I am on the trail.

If anyone on my list loses their starter I am going to tow them before I give them the starter though.

I found this on ebay. I am thinking about ordering it and using only the parts that are needed. I am going to put it together and see if it works when someone needs a starter or if I need a starter. What do you guys think of this kit?

Should work fine as long as your armature and housing as good. The commutator can be cleaned up with scotch-brite pads.

the nose bearing is .750 od x.529 id x .439 long , tractor supply may have one ! if not I can make some out of oil lite bushing material , just dont tear up that seal ! mine works great . I got a spare from James and I keep in the trailer ! also I keep tie rod ends , wheel bearings , good used ball joint , spare switch with two keys , oil and filter , and sometimes an air cleaner !

I found the starter on my rzr, and it looks like a pita to change. I'm guessing the bed has to come off??

Porkchop, that bronze oil lite would have to make a much better bushing than a needle bearing that small, I've seen that stuff take lots of abuse. Keep us posted on the Tractor supply bearing, that should be quick and cheap.

I have 5 starters in stock now
