Going to jack up this weekend and check, but I’m wondering if the front axles should rotate in 2wd or only when the 4x4 switch is switched on? Currently they are rotating all the time, and I don’t notice significant torque change when I select 4x4...

Hi there - I've been mostly riding railroad bed trails until a recent trip to Ride Royal Blue in TN... I loved the terrain and want to do more. My machine handled ever bit of the trails but I'd like to add some ground clearance to avoid some rocky boulders that occasionally scraped my undercarriage. What A arm kits and shocks/spring upgrades are suggested that won't throw off geometry, give me a few more inches of clearance, and allow for some larger tires? I'm riding fully stock right now. Thanks in advance!

Will a 2008 Sportman 800 plow fit a 2019 sportsman 500? And how much a used plow worth is a Polaris plow in good shape of the 2008 sportsman 800
Thanks

Picked up this Aluminium mount that holds a Chain Saw, Bow, Rifle, Ice Drill or any combination of these items at the same time. Built a small mount to adapt it to go into my front or rear 2" receiver in the bumpers.

Little background first: last Polaris was a 2016 570 SP. good rig, just looking for something little more refined.

looking at 2019 850's and dealer has a couple of the 1000's with upgraded tires, bumpers, winch.

$9200 for a white 850 or $11200 for the blue 1000 which prolly has $12-1400 of accessories (tires, winch for sure) a guy would probably buy anyway.

noticed the 1000 has electronic throttle....very nice it seems.

what else does a guy need? trail riding mostly, some in the rocky mountains where it gets pretty rough.


thoughts and opinions...????

I just picked up my first Polaris atv, it’s a 06 sportsman 700efi. Done some work on it fuel
Pump and regulator , tmap sensor seems to run great , but isles low bout 850 rpms or so after it gets hot. Not sure if it is supposed to do that. But Love this atv so far. Any advice? Is appreciated.

I've searched the Internet and this forum but I cannot find my exact situation.

I've got a 2006 Sportsman 800 EFI. You can turn the key on, gauges light up. Turn the key, nothing. If you go and jump the starter soloenoid (new btw) it starts up just fine and runs perfect. I've checked the wiring under the gauges and from what is visible nothing looks cut. Any ideas or where to start troubleshooting?

This is the tool I use to remove the enrichener from carbs

I milled the side out of a 1/4 inch drive deep well socket - the cable is flexible enough to bend in the slot and allow the socket to fit 5 sides of the nut - since the nut is not supposed to be tighter than about 5 ft lbs, it does not require a great deal of force to loosen it

what is the best brand (meaning longest lasting) wheel bearings I can put in my sportsman 570. 1400 miles on originals and they are absolutley shot. my front ball joints could use replacement too, so I have the same question. what are the longest lasting ball joints regardless of price, ide rather spend the extra money for em to last longer.

Hello,
does anyone have the specs for timing for a 2000 Polaris 325 Magnum?
I bought it from an older gentleman who had not driven it for a few years and was told he could not get it to run.
I have cleaned and then replaced the carburetor, the fuel lines, filter and pump, the ignition coil, the battery, and on and on.
I finally met a small engine guy who told me tat it could be the timing.
I see the mark and have taken the engine cover off.
There appears to be a marker line on the timing sprocket where the chain goes around but I can not find a correct positioning for the the sprocket or how to set it right in place.
I would appreciate some help.
Thanks
Peter
