Hey guys in search of advice. First time sportsman owner but not new to polaris. I bought an 850 that was swamped and seller says it comes with a knock. Long story short price was right and tore it down and crank bearings were shot. Crank journals are out of spec and connecting rod on mag side is blued and black, it got hot. Just wondering how fussy these crank bearing are. Do I need a new crank and connecting rods? Any input please and thanks trying to get er put back together for moose hunting season.

2013 Sportsman Rear Suspension Creak HELP!
SO I just picked up a very low mileage Sportsman (141 hrs) All is great but a few things. Mainly the rear suspension.. It creaks when I get on or rebound the left or right rear. I shot every piece of rubber I could find. I just greased every Zerk I could find till with oozed grease. I even disconnected the swaybar and lubed it and even twisted the bar to spread the lube.. After all that and at least a mile or 2 of driving it.. NO CHANGE. WTF.. I know I had to have missed something.
Ball joint issues
Just bought a 2011 xmr with 32s and a 4 inch lift. Once i got it home i wanted to check out my ball joints. As i shook it down, the left side upper ball joint was moving up and down but the spot it was moving at was between the control arm and ball joint. The only thing holding the ball joint from coming out was the snap ring. So someone please bless me with some good news. Did the old owner sand down the control arm down too much to where the ball joint doesnt have a wedge fit? Do they make a shim to fix that? Help
Toy Hauler best for Defender
We have a 2017 Can-Am Defender and are looking to get a toy hauler. A few that we like have slide outs toward the garage area, and when closed allow for only 65" (Defender is 62" wide spec). Anyone have any recommendations? We are trying to stay in the 28' 5th wheel / toy hauler range.

Intermittent starting problem
2014 Sportsman 570. In the last year I've had starting problems. I believe it has progressively become worse over the last year. Will turn over, but will not start. I have to continuously turn it off, and keep trying. It will finally fire. Once it is running, it runs fine.
posting and viewing photos
On several posts I can see "Thumbnail Photos attached" or words to that affect. I can not access those photos. I posted a photo of my ride on the August monthly contest and can not see that picture it only says the thumbnail comment. Can anyone tell me what the issue is?
