Got my new seals today for the front diff. I hope to get them in soon and then it will be ready to ride. It would have been much easier if I would have changed them before I put the diff in But I took the guys word their was nothing wrong with the diff. Seals are no big deal!

Here is what happen today 1st seal good 2nd seal good 3rd seal "O" CRAP bearings and metal falling out. I dont understand how I was able to ride with this diff. Thank God the pinion gear was still in good shape I was able to use everything I needed from my diff with the combo I have a good working diff I still have to adjust the diff lock & my tail light/ blinker is not working. If I don't mess with painting the wheel & plastics it's DONE!!!!!!!! I rode it for about 20 to 30 mins.

I went riding today and nothing fell off or broke I did for get to put 3 rubber sleves on the frame for the gas tank but their on now. Diff lock is still not working I'm going to have to take a little more time to adjust it & tail light still isn't working I'm going to try a new bulb. The bulb looks good but I tried 2 switches the 1 that came with the frame and my old one the brake light worked with my old 1 but nothing now is working. Other than that it's did good.

Well heres the update for today. Some of you will know what I'm talking about remember the old cars every time the moved the suspension would squeak.My quad was doing the same thing it was as loud as the motor my wife heard me comming up the driveway & when I came in the house I got that question! What did you break? Nothing I just got it squeaky clean. So I took the a-arms off and greased the heck out of them. It was driving me crazy I cut my ride short. The grease worked & I got the diff lock working like it should today.

      2000 Yamaha Big Bear Quit Today
      By Gwbarm
      I pulled out my Big Bear needed to do a few things probably havent been started in a year. Gassed it up charged the battery started right up. I have been using it around the property for this and that. Went to hook up my trailer to pull up to the house while it was idling it quit. Went to start it turned over but wouldnt start. After trying a few more times lost all power. Pulled it up to the house with the John Deere, the first thing i checked was the Universal fit soloenoil from Amazon and it was only a 10 AMP fuse so it does not universally fit the big bear it should be 30 AMP fuse. At the time i remember noticing it but forgot, at the time i had other problems like wiring harness being in a box stuck engine and no spark. when i bought it, yeah i know, thats one ishould have walked away from, but if i go to the trouble of hooking up my trailer and going there, its following me home.
      Thats old news, i still need to check it all out see if it lost spark and see if the starter shorted out it was acting kind of sluggish, i replaced the fuse with the spare 10 amp and blew immediately. I will try a 30 and see what happens.

      2010 Polaris 500 HO oil getting in the air box
      By Werewolf
      Oil is getting in the air box from crankcase vent tube, I put the two hoses that go to the air box together then something started to smoke on the front of the engine. There is a filter? In the line I blew that out.

      2000 Yamaha Big Bear 400 Getting Stuck in Reverse
      By Gwbarm
      My Yamaha Big Bear shifts through all the gears good, goes into reverse smoothly, but when i go to get out of reverse it takes a lot of effort to get it back to first gear, and even then it does not go very smoothly, have to pull up on the pedal really hard, anyone else ever had this problem. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
