2018 Sportsman 570 plow mount
I ordered a Tusk Subzero plow kit for my 2018 Sportsman 570 but the atv mount is for an ACE 570. The 2 mounts are 11" apart. Are there any other brand mounts that will work with the plow system I have?? Thanks!
High Altitude Clutching
I have a stock 2015 Sportsman 570 Non-EBS with Rip Saw tires. In the mountains at 6,000-9,000 feet climbing steep snow covered hills was sometimes a problem. The machine would loose RPM's and power and would struggle to climb. IT was not back shifting properly. It was dangerous backing down hills because I couldn't make it sometimes. I have snow mobiled all my life so I know CVT clutching pretty well. Here's what I found for the fix.
Primary clutch comes with 25-52G weights which are rated for 0-6,000 feet. The recommended weights for 6,000-12,000 feet are 25-48G. They were $50 and improved the back shifting problem. I kept the original spring in.
Secondary clutch also needed to be setup for better back shifting. I took it apart and 2 ramps were very rough and had worn about halfway through 2 buttons. The rough ramps were causing back shifting problems. I sanded all 3 ramps and finished them with 400 grit sand paper so they were smooth. I replaced all 3 buttons for $15. The spring was set in position 2 and 2, the second stiffest position. I left it in 2 and 2.
When I climbed a long steep hill at 9,000 feet the throttle response was excellent. It held the RPM's and never even struggled and I had power to spare. I am very pleased now with my clutch setup. This past week I never needed full throttle while climbing any hill. I lost a little over 5 MPH top end but safe climbing is more important.

2002 Xployer 400
I have an 02 Xployer I'm rehabbing. The rim sizes are 12" in the front and 10" in the rear. I'm thinking of going to a 12" rim for the rear so the choice of tires is easier. Not sure of rim sizes from different machines. Does anybody know the backspacing on stock Xployer rims? Looking at a set of an 08 Razor, would they fit?
Any known 1000 weak points?
New 19' Renegade 1000 owner here. First time Cam Am owner. I came from the Polaris world and it is common on the 850 and 1000 for the front diff to be weak and there is an aftermarket fix for it. Are there any known things like that on these Renegades?
