Tire Chains

Are tire chains effective in deep snow? I just purchased a set of tire chains for my 16’ 650 Outty Max. Is it better to install the chains on the front or rear tires for snow? Thanks in advance for your timely response in this matter.

2002 Sportsman 500 HO No Start/No Turn Over with Ignition

I have an older ATV that I use for plowing snow and unfortunately last week the ATV stopped working and will not start. I use a winch to raise and lower the blade

I can turn the ignition switch and there is no turn over what so ever.
  • Battery has been checked and is good with 12.6 volts
  • The headlights work when the ignition switch is turned on.
  • I can start and get the ATV running if i jump the solenoid poles
  • Solenoid has been replaced
  • When running the Winch will not work

I have checked a few things such as the fuses in a bag and i show 12volts passing through. I checked a couple wiring connections in the back what appears to be a relay and i see 12 volts. Any suggestions? Could i have put the wires on the new solenoid wrong?

Thanks for the help.

Can I Swap to a non-ADC diff

2008 Sportsman 500 EFI HO

Front diff is in rough shape. Previous owner ran without fluid for who knows how long. Bearings are shot but the biggest problem is the input shaft is pretty scarred up in the needle bearing area. Not sure it's worth reusing and that shaft is expensive...so is a new(used) diff.

I don't care about the ADC, can I run a non ADC front diff in this machine with no other issues?

I'm new to this...thanks in advance for the help.

Winch install

I have a 2001 Sportsman 500 H.O., that I want to put a winch one. If anyone has the same model and has installed a winch, I would like some info regarding the mount and where to install the mount as well as if I should consider replacing the OEM battery for a more powerful battery?

Hi, I live in Oklahoma and just acquired a decent running 2001 Polaris Sportsman 500 cc H.O. I plan on using it for a variety of both lawn and sporting events.
