Hey there, my name is Sam and I'm from eastern AB. I currently ride a 2014 outlander 1000 with a few things done to it. I joined up hoping to get some help with my clutches and hope to be able to help other members while being a part of this forum.
To start things off I'm running the QSC and STM clutch combo on it and got them quite hot the other day pulling my boat. After shutting the quad down and letting it cool I started it a few hours later to find that the quad would not go into gear without stalling. I assumed the one way bearing must've seized. Pulled the clutch cover off to find that the primary is not returning to where it should be at idle causing the secondary to spin at idle. I tried to pull the outer part of the clutch off to see if I could see if something was binding but I could only pull the clutch out as far as where it should be idling and to get it there I had to use ratchet straps attached to my truck lol. the one way bearing rotates perfectly fine with no noise.
Wondering if anyone has any insight as to what may have happened to the clutch. Is there a bushing on the back side of the clutch that would be somewhat seized to the shaft not allowing me to pull it off? Thanks, Sam
