Recently did a boot swap on the old 700 Grizz and found a boogered up thread on the top knuckle ball joint.

Can I just order the part and replace this piece myself or does this have to be done by a prof. mechanic? What tool do I use to get it out? Some kind of press maybe?

I think I punched up a 2012 grizz as I didnt know the exact year.

OB is correct. :)

If the threads are good where the nut sits, Ive been known to use a triangle type file to fix the other threads.

      Has anyone found aftermarket CDI for Big Bear 400?
      By Callaway
      I am trying to diagnose a no spark issue with my 02 Big Bear 400 and I am really hoping it is not a CDI.  I have done the test on the stator and I believe that is faulty.  I ordered a new aftermarket one from a the jungle website and it tested bad right out of the box so I am waiting for a different one to arrive from an ATV parts supplier.  I started looking out of curiosity at CDI units and it seems if it is for a big bear you are SOL.  Kodiaks, no problem.  Big Bear. No such luck.

      Hi my name is Dex, and i have an addic..oh wrong group.
      I only started actually riding atvs in late 2019 with a friend from high school. After getting out and enjoying a night of riding and camping, i just found that i REALLY enjoy being out in the woods on a 4wheeler day or night. my main rig is a 2020 Can Am Outlander 570 and recently picked up a 2004 Honda Recon 250, and a Kawasaki Prairie 360. Both the honda and the Kawasaki are projects that started in pretty rough condition and are slowly becoming running, riding machines. As i research and rebuild, i am learning new skills along the way and enjoying every minute of it. Thanks for having me in the community, i hope to learn a bit more every day from each of you out there, while also sharing some experiences with you all as well!

      New Yamaha Timberwolf Rear Shock Found!
      By McG75
      Sorry I suck at these forums so if you see this submitted under update status, my bad. Anyhow this is a new shock for a 96 Yamaha Kodiak 400 4x4 it fits my 96 Yamaha Timberwolf 250 4x4 perfectly. Little narrower are the bottom than the original but everything else is perfect. I extended it to almost a half in from full extension because I’m pushing 350 pounds.  It rides and hold me well. So if any of y'allRace driven shock. have been looking for one and didn’t want to do the research here it is.

      2010 Yamaha Grizzly 550 CV Joint Boot
      By ken78
      I'm getting tired of replacing my rear CV joint boots. Anyone have a source or recommendation for a better after market book? One made with a metal mesh, or maybe Kevlar? Not sure if that exists, but there has to be something better than the rubber that the Alaska winters seem to destroy.
       
      Thanks.
      -Ken
