When did 4wd hubs change to the diff.

Have a buddy looking to buy a sportsman. We had a new 570 and an older 500. What year did they change from the 4wd being in the hubs to it being in the diff? I told him he should try to find one with it in the diff being that the only problems we’ve ever had was the hub 4wd style. Thanks

2017 sportsman xp 1000 sway bar

Got a problem with my sway bar and wanted to know if any of you had the same problem. My sway bar shifted a bit to the right, so doesnt sit perfectly in the middle.( So off set to the right) It also rubs a bit on the left coil spring because of this. I chamged the bushings, and even bought a new sway bar...no change still shifted. 🤔

570 Sportsman Reliablity and Trouble-Free Lifetime?

I'm interested in some opinions....I've got a 2015 Sportsman 570 EPS/EBS that I ride 100 hours and about 1200 miles per year. I ride it hard (dust, rocks, steep, cold and hot temperatures), but am diligent about routine maintenance. With past Polaris ATV Sportsmans, I started having mechanical issues around the 400 hour/3000-4000 mile marks. Opinions: When do expensive, major things start to fail with hard riding (engine valve clearances, belts, bearings, transmissions, differentials, etc)? Friends who ride Razors less aggressively seem to get 8000 to 9000 miles on them before things break.

Sportsman 500 clutch rubbing…..

Cheers again all. Just picked up a 1997 Sportsman 500, worked out a couple bugs but one I can't figure out..... the primary clutch just ever so slightly rubs on the cover. If you just lay your hand on it, or lift on it slightly, the tapping sound is gone. Only does it at idle. Pulled the outer cover off, all looks like new - this was a one owner machine since new, little old guy, and he can't remember clutch has ever been off. I inspected where the inner housing behind the clutches is mounted, all looks to be absolutely standard and also in mint shape. Anybody ever heard of this before? Do these outer covers deform over the years from the heat or something? I have a puller to pull the primary, but not sure what else i'll see. Anybody ever heard of this?

Pit Bull Growlers

I was looking on your corporate site, and it shows that you carry Pit Bull tires. When I click on the logo, it shows 0 items found. Another distributor shows them on closeout/ discontinued. Are they going out of business/ no longer making them?
