  1. If you can order the new bearing you should be able to pull the cv apart. There should be a big snap ring just inside the cup on the big end. Should be able to get it out with a pick. Then once apart the should be a snap ring on the end of the shaft to slide the cage and everything off. Then the bearing should come off. Then just get a cv joint boot kit with the grease and new bands. The parts diagram might be able to help locate the snap rings. If nothing else you are looking at getting a new shaft right now, so even if you break the cv joint you really are not out anything.

  2. As long as you take care of it, it will treat you good. My daughter and her friends put over 700 mi on hers last year. That doesn’t sound like a lot until you figure I only have 2.5 acres that my house sits on, so many laps. Lol. The drive chain requires constant attention, lube and adjusting. If you can’t hear is slap when it gets loose you will be able to see the rearend buck when starting from a stop. Don’t lose the code for the PID if you have one set, can’t remember if the ‘18s have that or not. You will have to take it to a dealer who will have to send a service report to Polaris to try and get it back. If riding in wet areas be sure to check on the air filter and keep the cooling fan clean and clear of debris. Mine had a slew of issues when I bought it but the dealer replaced the harness, the PID, and a sensor. The only other problem I saw was with a new one and the temp thermistor, it was or went bad right after it was sold.  Everything has been good since then. Hopefully this year it gets a bunch of upgrades.
