questions about my 86 lt250r

There was a change in 87. I don't know if the arms will fit or not. Here is a great source of info on the LTs though. QuadracerHQ

I think the swingarm will not totally sure though. 87 is what some call a bastard year. It is unlike all other LTs. The frame is the same as the 88-92 but the motor is different. I haven't been around the 85 and 86s like I have the newer ones. You should be able to find what you need on QuadracerHQ though.

      I bought this Eiger about a year ago it has been my runner while i worked on my other projects, except today it wouldnt crank, i suspect it is the  petcock not letting fuel through. When i bought it it had a multitude of problems, but i just ignored those and rode it any way, put it on the back burner while i worked on my other projects with more serious problems, like stuck engine ,wiring harness ripped out, and wheels locked up. Got those all sorted out and since it wouldnt crank today decided it was time to refine this one. When i got it it had a bad Non OEM carb replaced it with a cheap aftermarket until i could find a descent priced OEM to rebuild, and have been riding it ever since. It also had a bad petcock, would only run on prime, neutral light didnt work, no brakes, which are a luxury anyway, but as im getting older luxurys are nice to have, so i guess i will fix those. I paid a little more for this one, $800 but he wanted $1500, because it ran and moved and most things seemed to work, and it didnt smoke, even with the bad carb. Generally 500 is my limit for a non runner, since this one ran i upped my limit a little. So i got it out of the shed before the mice got in it for the winter and started going over it today.
       


      I would never buy a new camouflaged one because of what you see here, and it almost stopped me from buying this one, but it is what it is, not much i can do for that now, they did look nice when new, i am toying with the idea of replacing the plastics while i can still get them, but am not there yet, expensive.

       
      I think the snorkel has got to go its not hooked up anyway. Looks like a perfect mouse house.

      Hi everyone!  I am rebuilding my father's 2022 Sportsman 450HO that caught fire and wrecked all of the body and melted much of the wiring harness. I was able to source a used harness to splice in, but it's missing the wires and connectors going to the left side controls (Start/stop, headlight hi/lo & reverse overide). I haven't been able to find individual part #'s for these plugs/pigtails, Polaris only lists the entire harness for a huge amount $$$. At 72 yrs old, the last thing he needs is to spend all his money on a quad he's only had less than a year, lol. Does anyone know of the part #'s for these, or an aftermarket source?  Thanks!

      What is the torque for the rear a-arm bushing bolts at the hub?

      Does anyone know what year they stopped producing the King Quad 300? - particularly in Australia and New Zealand 
      What were the design changes?

      Quad can turn very tightly to the left but very wide to the right.  On inspection, when turning right, the pitman arm hits the EPS controller - it doesn't when turning left.  The quad had been rolled (prior owner) and the steering was straightened.  I believe that the pitman arm is now slightly offset.  Can I disconnect the tie-rods from the pitman arm and then remove and reattach the pitman arm in a more centered position, and then reattach and adjust the tie-rods?  Or is the pitman arm not adjustable since there is a grove that it must align with on the EPS?  If not the method I suggest, how would a person fix the issue?  Would the entire steering system need to be taken apart and reassembled?
      Thanks very much!
      Phil.
