Hey guys!
I’m looking at purchasing a 2018 or 2019 can am renegade 1000r, I have now a Polaris scrambler 1000 and it rides great on the trails but it doesn’t have the power I’m looking for. I hoping that the renegade would be better. And before I’m gonna buy a renegade I would like to know the pros and cons of the renegade.
Thanks.

I had been thinking about these for the last year at least, and finally called Highlander and ordered a set. I do a lot of trail riding and like a soft ride, but still need the clearance....

So the fit was pretty good, and the install went fairly well. I had the dealer provide me brand new ball joints and press them into the new a-arms. I installed everything....Wasn't too bad.

So things to remember...BJ's don't come with the snap rings, that's an extra $11, and the bushings I bought with the A-arms did not come with new sleeves. I had to re-use the stockers. Luckily, mine were in vgc...

So price of the a-arms plus, $76 for ball joints and $25 for them to press them in and $11 for snap rings and $14 in metric bolts/washer that I either stripped or were bent that had to be replaced in the skid plate and bumper mount. I have jars of SAE stuff, but no metric.

I reminded the dealer I got thrown out of an Autozone for having to make two trips to get all the parts to do a brake job once when the guy didn't give me ALL the clips and springs to do it the first time....when he realized I purchased the ball joints from his counter guy...

Other than that...I really like all the extra clearance the a-arms have and they are very sturdy and fit good. Already have 30 trail miles on them from this past weekend....

I also ordered the rear 2" extended arms from Highlifter...I haven't received those yet. I am debating if I should have the dealer do those or if I should buy the special tool to do those and goof with it myself.

Hi guys, just bought a sportsman 500. The owner did a top end on it because it was using oil. Anyway, he bought a top end kit on eBay, which included a cylinder which I heard is Chinese. Anyway, it's getting coolant in the oil. It's a good possibility that this guy was clueless and made mistakes during assembly, or it could be the Chinese cylinder. I got the original cylinder with the bike, just mic'd it and it is .001 out of round, but .002 over on wear so I would have to bore it. So my options are to disassemble it and reassemble it properly and hope that the new cylinder isn't at fault, or bore the original cylinder and buy a new piston and assemble it. What do you recommend?

Hey guys, I'm a newbie here, and I was wondering if anybody has used Niche cams in their quads. I'm looking at fixing up the farm's old Magnum 500 (1999 I think) that died some time ago. It was a good quad, but it needs a new cam, the recoil needs to be rebuilt (pulled out and won't go in), it needs a new starter and battery and maybe a couple other things I'm missing. It was running when parked, and by the time we got through pricing out parts with the dealer, it was cheaper to buy a new 500 to replace it. I'd like to try and fix it as it would be very useful, but I don't have the $$ to do it through the dealer. I've been looking online, mostly Amazon, and there seems to be a gold mine of cheap parts for this thing. As long as they are of decent quality, I'd be game for picking up a few things and slowly working on it over the course of several months amongst other projects.

Nothing will take place soon, but I'd like to see if anybody else used products of this brand, and what your thoughts are on it.

Thank you

Picked up a Can Am Superwinch Terra 45. Called up dealer where I purchased my Defender and he quoted me $500 install!! I literally laughed out loud and said that was more than what I paid for the winch. :eek

Anyhow....I've never installed a winch. From my research, this winch is specifically for the Defender and pretty much a "plug and play" install. Looking over the project, my only reservation is connecting the solenoid/contactor assembly under the dash. Everything else seems pretty straight forward.

I've installed everything on my machine so far. Never done a winch, but no way I'm paying for install. So is this something a novice can tackle?

Thanks!

This one is my buddies Outlander 500l. Stay tuned for more on this budget build!

Im looking to cool down my 2016 Outty XMR 1000. Im a new owner of this machine and I noticed this past summer I had issues with 1.) The exhaust would get so hot that it heated up some of my plastics which concerned me and 2.) My fan kicks on quite a bit. I use this quad for a various number of things including trail riding, mudding, ice fishing, and plowing. I have heard new exhaust, tuning, and other various solutions to this problem which I am okay with doing but I am also not looking for an extreme performance overhaul either. Again im very new to this so I am inexperienced with the tuning process as well. I want to get a new exhaust as well but I just need to know what direction to go as far as the overheating goes because this is my #1 priority with this machine. So any positive feedback and suggestions are greatly appreciated. My machine is all stock right now btw and I have just over 1000 miles on it. Also I am looking at looney tuned dual exhaust, they sound sweet and look good from what I have researched. Opinions and facts greatly appreciated.

I am attempting to install a new starter I'm my 92 350L. The problem I am having is removing the last starter bracket bolt near the clutch housing. There is no room to get a wrench. I removed the clutch housing cover off Hoping there was access inside...no go. Was thinking of drilling a large access hole to get at the bolt. Then plug it with a rubber plug or something. Any better ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Used it for the firstborn time today.
Made life easy.

My question is why aren’t the front wheels “on” when the switch is in “ADC 4x4?”

Regular 4x4 shows them on.
