I have to do the tie rod and cv axle on mine. Do you think I could get the nuts/bolts off for this job without an impact? I have a breaker bar so hoping that will be good enough and not have to go buy an impact.
I was watching you install the new axel and I was wondering if you could tell me how you lined the axel up inside the diff before you drove her down flush with the diff housing?
Slide it in slowly and turn it slowly as you slide it, then when you feel it grab the splines and slide a bit more, you should be good to give it the last push. Good luck!
I need to replace my front cv, when I look at it front on is that the left or right? Or is it when you stand behind? I thought both cv would b the same but ebay is asking for left or right.
Appreciate all the how-to videos you have shared for the outlander. How much time are we looking at to do one side? I am currently looking into installing a Torq locker in my 18 xmr. Also thanks for the tip on the screen protector. Cheap and easy way to keep the gauge looking mint!
Probably half hour to an hour for one side to take apart...not too bad! I'll be looking at the Torq locker also next time the Visco Loc goes! Thanks for tuning in!
2010 CanAm Outlander 500 Max, can’t get the front left shaft out, it won’t pop out like yours, kind of like it’s attached or something. Is there a special way to do this.
I am assuming your trying to get the left front "axle" out? Might need some coaxing. There's videos that show how to wrap a strap around the axle and then swing a large hammer outward to pop the axle out...that should do the trick, there's just a clip holding the axle in place but sometimes if they don't have any grease they seize up a bit. Good luck!
This will make it a lot easier if I have to do mine. thanks for making a video. Did you happen to grease that hub bearing just to see how many more pumps at took from the original time you greased it?
Yep. If you're removing the axle you should drain the diff first unless you want a mess. LOL! Make sure the diff fluid is clean and mot milky or brown. If it is then you have a seal leaking. If it's clean then you're good. I usually change the fluid once a year regardless.
Where do you get parts for your atv, I have a 2017 outlander 850 xmr and can never find any parts for it, I need a right rear axle, mine is the same way as yours
I get my stock parts straight off the BRP online Web Site in Quebec...unless my local dealer has them in Stock. Everything else I shop around and ask questions on Can Am facebook sites. My dealer had the axle in Stock. ..I like the stock axles, they are very strong! Thanks for watching! Good luck with your repairs!
dont get me wrong- idlove too look your videos and some other guys- all blastin on those powerf. canams- but - to see so much brake - is confusin me...i drive since 6000kms on my slow fat cat- just had to change 2 rubbberboots and the waterpump is wet- not leakin...starts up and runs fine- slow - but fine....;- () hope u can sort all the sh.t out ;-)
