Could someone please let me know what the pourpose of these brackets are? I've tried to look it up but could not find an explanation. It looks like it's a guide to slide attachments on but not sure what attachments. Thanks in advance. Again, really new to this stuff so try and take it easy on me lol.

I was out in the snow today pulling my kids on a sled. I heard a distinct crack from the front end. (Note was in AWD) I got off to look and see if i hit something. Well nothing hit but fluid pouring from my broken diff cover. My pinion gear was still inside the gear case so I limped it back to my garage. I removed the two bolts not holding anything lower two. I then removed the upper two that still was holding my pinion gear in place. I removed the crush pin and removed drive shaft. Now I was able to remove the pinion gear. I observed two teeth chipped up. I checked the ring gear and it looked ok. Well this is where I get pissed. I purchased this quad with 148miles on it from a Polaris Rep. Never titled till I purchased it. Its a 2017 Sportman Xp1000 decked out by rep. Winch, plow, led lights after market wheels and tires brush gaurds rear cargo system. I mean awesome quad. Ive maybe put 300 miles on it mainly deer season and deer scouting. No riding adventures never buried in mud nothing. Wife and kids prob put half the miles on it doing yard work.

Well I figured id get online and order some parts. Ie: cover and pinion gear. Well billet covers are everywhere. As for the pinion gear thats a big fat your screwed by polaris. I called two local dealerships they quoted me 664$ for entire new diff unit. When I pull up the diff parts cache it clearly shows all parts labeled individually. Actually the pinion gear is #14. When I question every shop or online source. They just say I gotta order entire gear box unit.

Im to this point. Order a new billet cover put chipped pinion gear back in and let it ride. Why not if I have to buy complete assembly if it breaks oh well at least ill have a new billet cover.

Any thoughts or help would be greatly appreciated. I turned to this forum when I initially started researching my atvs failure.

Hey guys, I lurk now and then, but this time I can’t come up with much. My buddies have new quads that blow mine out of the water, I want to be able to keep up, but I don’t like the price tag of a new machine. I have been thinking about putting a cam in my machine. I have been finding that it has an exhaust and an intake cam, is this correct? I couldnt find any engine diagrams but I looked up used heads for sale, and it looks like it has a pushrod style setup.

I have a couple questions, hopefully you guys can turn me down the right path. I am not trying to beat my buddies 1000 scrambler by any means, but I would like more power, will this give me a good boost? While I am in there should I rebuild the engine, or just do pistons and rings? It did not have a speedo when I got it, so I don’t know the mileage but overall it’s in pretty good shape for a 2003. Are there any other upgrades I should also do? Or should I ditch the idea of a cam for a better mod?

Thanks for any advice!

Throttle stuck on my machine and the throttle cable links into something else close to the carb. A friend of mine suggested to take out the oil pump and just run my throttle cable from the carb. Not exactly sure how I would go about it, any advice or input would be appreciated.
Thanks

I got a 03 sportsman 600 carb wheeler. I got good compression in both cylinders. It's getting fuel to carb. When you first turn the key on it it fire only once and then that's it. With either ether or not. I was wondering if anyone has a problem like this.

Is anyone interested in purchasing a front diff out of a 2010 Sportsman 850xp for parts or repair? What I do know is everything internal, including an aluminum sprague cage is all intact and a working coil. I originally took it apart because the front wheels would engage intermittenly in 2x4 mode, if switch is in 4x4, diff works as it should.I was going to purchase an oem cage to try as there has been discussion of some aluminum cages out there, depending who you bought it from, may have different tolerances. I didnt want to fuss with it anymore.The ADC coil does not get magnatized. Send me an offer and I can send you pics upon request.

Know the tail lights are supposed to stay on a few seconds after shutting down motor. But only my left one stays on for a few seconds? Tail lights both work fine when motor is running?
