- This 4-wheeler had no front wheel drive. One end of the prop-shaft that feeds power from the transfer case to the front differential was totally worn out. I ordered the parts that I thought we would need and today we'll get that component fixed up.
lol, omg sir! First off, thank you for posting. I’m in phase one, research. I have a problem with my slip yoke. So, your video at least gave me visuals (i.e. got to see what spline looks like on front diff after yoke off). lol but my goodness Fred, there is certainly no rush to your vids, but somehow I still watched with out fast forwarding to much. Your video has inspired me to make my own, with some different video editing techniques.
Just a suggestion, I find the best CZcams videos are brief but precise. No meaningless commentary. More to the point…you might try some try pods for your camera too. That be helpful, seen you working with one hand while holding camera. Cheers though sir!
I'm definitely not an expert at this CZcams video stuff, or for that matter I'm not even novice on the Polaris. Just an old farmer fixer. I do appreciate you taking time to comment. I'll try to do a little more cutting.
@@oldguysoldbikes your a good man! I know a few like you! Thanks again for the good work sir!
Looks to me like Step 1 on a new Polaris is take the prop shaft out and grease the splines so that miles down the road you don't have a war with the machine to get it off! lol
Or...maybe if you keep it greased, you won't have to replace it at all.
im in the club, i understand and some times speak old! LOL
Really like the videos 👍🏼
Thanks Hunter, I'm just an old shade tree mechanic trying to stay out of the dance halls and gin joints.
A tough job.
I'm afraid that the worst is yet to come Cain. I may have to pull the transfer/transmission case to replace the shaft that connects to the prop rod.
Jack dont think that slpooy spline will last even with grease. seems way to loose to me.
I plowed snow during the winter and it's been running fine ever since. It doesn't slip as far as I can tell.
penetrating oil and a propane torch would help.
