Still have about 4 - 5 ft of snow, but am getting ready to do fluids change on an 06 400 I got last fall. Have seen where 5 - 40 oil is the norm, but according to the manual unless you are going to be riding in temps over 96 F then 5-30 is good. Since 5-30 is a lot more common, does anyone use it and what are the opinions? I don't expect to be doing more than one oil change a year so dollar wise is pretty insignificant, but just considering.
Traxter rear drive shaft brand new
Long time no talk! The reason I have not been active recently on the page is due to me not owning my 2001 Bombardier Traxter 500 anymore, and have purchased a 2008 Arctic Cat 500 TRV.
Digging through my belongings, I found a brand new rear drive shaft that I intended to put on my wheeler when the splines on both the coupler and shaft were shredded. Unfortunately, since the coupler was toast, I had to get both and stumbled upon a used coupler/shaft combo on eBay. So, in turn, there was no need to use the new drive shaft. It took my local dealer three weeks to find it, and ended up finding the part sitting in Whitehorse, Yukon Territory. They believe it is the last OEM drive shaft available in the country and I can believe that because after I received my part the online sites showed the product no longer available.
If any of you are struggling to find the OEM Spicer rear drive shaft for your Traxter, shoot me a message and we could work out a price. Trying to help out anyone so we can keep these durable machines in good, working order.

Polaris Scrambler Clutch, and Transmission
Hi,
I have a 2014 Polaris scrambler 1000 with some customizations on it. I have 28" tires and a 2 inch lift kit.And it has a weird problem. And this problem has happened before. For some reason when ever I stomp on the throttle, it makes a really loud grinding sound coming from the transmission, and once i get up to speed the grinding sound stops. but it does it everytime i stomp on the throttle. And it does it whenever i slow down really fast. And it does it whenever i go through the mud. It is really obnoxious and annoying. But whenever I install a new transmission, the grinding seems to stop and the atv will run normally. But after about 3-4 months the grinding starts again out of no where. I just got done installing its 4th transmission.And the atv is running fine again. But I'm pretty sure the atv is going to start doing the same thing again in a few months. Ive heard about performance clutches that I can get but i don't know if thats the problem. If anyone knows what this is, please let me know how to fix this problem
Thanks

2012 DS 250 can am wiring problem
Hey, my can am had just quit , died while I was riding. Had just got it, but when I tried to started back up.....the yellow start button would not do anything. I put a test light on it and it's got power. Checked all fuses, and it's not the starter or the solenoid. I think it's the gear control unit, the black box under the front right fender with 12 wire's running to it.
wiring diagram in need. 2012 ds250 can am
Does anyone got a diagram you can hook me up with. I couldn't find one for my quad. It's a ||2012 DS 250 can am||
