Super relevant clean content. Wish you still had that unit. I’m tackling this project on this 4th of July. I’ve got the same RZR as you had. I found I had to tighten the shit out of preload to correct that rear wheel camber. I’m doing bushings, wheel bearings, ball joints, and axles all at once. Mine was clapped when I got it now it’s super clapped as we just rode St Helen in MI for a week. Little RZR looks worse for the wear but took an amazing beating. Otherwise I wouldn’t be wasting my time on it. While riding in MI my front alignment went array, I think the ball joints gave up all the slop they could before breaking. Lastly it seems like a lot of people resort to the SuperATV adjustable ball joint A-arms for a work around. Peace out dude
Appreciate the kind words and all of the information. I'll make a mental note of the preload correction on that camber next time I get a rzr with that issue. These machines are very capable of getting us out to places we otherwise just wouldn't get to see and keeping em going, as challenging as it can be, is often a rewarding process. Appreciate you watching and taking the time to share all of this information in the comments. Cheers
I milled out the holes in my hubs and pressed in a sealed bearing on each side then pressed in a stainless pipe with an id that the bolt has to be hammered threw.
On my 800s it’s sloppy af! I have replaced with stock bushings and new pivot rods I didn’t do bolts. But afterwards it still had play at all the connections within the a arms. Such a mess to put on new parts to have it still as sloppy as before! How well has your install worked and have you had to do wheel bearings yet?
If I remember correctly, I read several similar stories on the forums from replacing with stock parts. That was a big factor in why I chose to go with "Mr. Dave's Super Tough Bushings" as they seemed to be the universally agreed upon on the forums as superior to the oem parts, definitely frustrating to go through all that hassle and still not achieve the desired result. I never got the chance to install the wheel bearings before that machine sold, but I definitely noticed a huge improvement in the wheel slop at the connection with the a-arm after installing the above mentioned aftermarket bushings. Stay tuned for a wheel bearing video in the future next time I pick up a rzr that needs one. Thanks for watching and taking the time to share a valuable detailed description of attempting this job in the real world, Cheers
I think they were called Mr. Daves super tough bushings rear control arm bushings. Hope this helps, thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a good question in the comments. Cheers
If I remember correctly it was a rzr s? really not sure on that though. Appreciate you watching and taking the time to leave a good question in the comments. Cheers
