Great video! Did it for the first time yesterday. I found it much easier to access some of the zerks by removing the wheels! Still some cussing but that helped.
Thanks for making this video. It was very helpful for me since I have the same model and didn't know about all of these grease fittings. I ordered a grease gun and marine grease right after watching it. Thanks again! If you have time, can you tell me how you removed the stock stickers from your machine? Thanks
Awesome glad to hear it helped someone out. The stock stickers.. My fingernail and patience, if you get it started and go slow most came off for me on one peel. A heat gun or hair dryer at low heat also helps loosen things up. Then of there is any residue left use some good gone, thenwipe the area with alcohol to clean it up. 👍
The 2021 and later 850 Trail and XPs only have the outer rears and the prop. The others are automotive style sealed rubber bushings and wilk be tight long past when these plastic ones need to be replaced.
No problem, glad you got something out of it. We mostly ride at AOAA in coal township, and Lost trails in Dunmore. I would like to check out Reading trails too but haven't yet. Are you in the area?
Yeah I heard the new machines don't have grease points. Kinda weird if you ask me, hope they hold up well. I know I have to grease mine a couple times a year or it is nothing.
I like to use marine grease, holds up better to the elements. As for how often? I usually do it a couple times a year. Really when you hear things starting to squeak, it is time to lube it up.
@@RideTheEarthnow I really appreciate the advice. I'm not too mechanical but I'm getting better. I just want to make sure I take good care of my new ATV.
Nice, they are sweet machines. As for when you should do it. I am not really sure. Polaris might have some sort of interval but for me i do it one or 2 times a season depending on how much deep water and or riding I do. Also if you hear any squeakyness in the suspension then it is time for a lube. Hope that helps.
@@giocannicampos6816 weird. I just have a small grease gun that I bought at an auto parts store with a flexible hose. Something like this. Slippery Pete Mini Pistol Grip Grease Gun. Heavy Duty Design for 3oz Cartridges. 12 inch Flexible Hose and 5 inch Rigid Extension Pipe a.co/d/c4xpJ6p
Just the standard size? Didn't buy anything special? Sorry not much help there but I believe they are all pretty much a general size. Same for the jeep as that are on the sportsmans
Look at the suspension and at a pivot point there should be one at all the pivot points so you can keep that lubed. I haven't looked at a 2021 570 though. That seems like a weird thing to leave off.
Yeah a couple people have mentioned there aren't any on the newer machines. They must have magical bushings or something. I need to grease mine a couple times a year.
