Rear Outer CV Joint

I'm replacing the outer CV Joint on my 2005 Sportsman. I have the axel hanging free (tied up) pulled the boot back and cleaned the grease away and fond the clip. Can move the clip. Tried putting a pipe wrench loosely around the shaft and hammering in it, but will not come off. Any ideas that might help me. Thanks John

Hi guys, new to the forum here. Looking forward to read a lot and learn from you all about this machines.
I own a 2017 Oulander Max 570 XT. Bought it new about a year ago.
My dad also bought a 2016 Arctic Cat Alterra 550 XT the same day I bought mine. He got a good deal on that left over.
Both machines have been a great experience and a lot of fun...
I've been using it all year round, at home and we took them out for a bit of trail fun as well.
For snow plowing I've used both and they both do a great job. I have a Moose plow and at first I was snapping the winch lines on both ATVs... one syn. and the other metal. I ordered the pulley kit Moose offers for the plow and problem solved, never again snapped a winch line.

Anyways... here's a few pics of both ATVs...



This is from this past weekend's trip to Lost Trails ATV park in PA.




Whistling noise from back end sportsman 550 2013

Had a mice problem and they seemed to make nests everywhere they could find a spot. i took it to a dealer for a tuneup to clear the nests in the drive belt/clutch area and to find a leak i had on one of the lines. also had a whistling noise coming when i accelerated so they told me the urine from the mice got onto one of the clutches and thats where the noise was coming from so they sanded it downand said everything was good. well im still having the same noise do you guys think its the belt that needs to be changed maybe it did something to the belt aswell. any answers would be appreciated.


thanks scott

SYA snorkel with rad kit

Hi everyone!
Is there any of you have the SYA warriors snorkel with a rad relocation in place? On the SYA web site they only show one without the rad relocate!
I was wondering if they fit when you have a rad relocate, it seems tight but not sure? If anyone of you out there as a rad relocate and the warriors snorkel I would like to see some pictures! I am thinking about it. Ho yeah and this is for a G2 outlander mine is a 2017 1000R with BRP rad kit.

Thank you!

Different LED light in deluxe windshield?

Hi,

Want to get as much useful light output as possible in as small space as possible and wondering if it's possible to mount a bigger LED light in the deluxe fairing. Thinking of a couple of options like two of the much bigger Piaa RF single lamps or maybe a single 6" or two Rigid D series. Would it fit or be possible to mount behind the windshield in the given space?

Need replacement plastics

Howdy - I flipped over my 2017 Ace 500 and really busted up quite a bit of the plastic. I want your feedback on a couple of things.
1). I carry full insurance. Is it worth submitting a claim or will I end up just with crazy rates (not had a claim in over a decade)?
2). Any recommendation on where to get replacement parts (plastics)? Any chance there is anything avail on the secondary market?

Thanks in advance for your time - Drew
