Hi there and welcome. first off, i just looked on the Cub cadet website, and they have no UTV by the name of Commander. Do you perhaps mean Can Am commander?

UTVs represent a pretty good investment of both your money and your enjoyment. The tires that come stock on your machine are usually pretty good all-around tires, but there are several reasons to consider going for an upgrade. You might want a more aggressive tread pattern for a specific kind of riding. Perhaps the riding conditions in your area call for a tire with better puncture resistance. There is always the reason that comes from countless hours of enjoyment – the stock tires are simply worn out. Maybe you just want some different tires simply because you do? Regardless of the reason, a new set of tires represents a significant investment. Here are five of the best UTV tires for the money on the market today. Read More

@Harry Thomas Any progress?

The only thing left to do is adjust the "Axial Play". should i put the flywheel and coils on the crankshaft before i do it? Or not?

Took the camshaft and crankcase cover to the machine shop. (the cam journal and crankcase bearing for the cam were wore some) and the machinist said not to worry about it. still fits real tight, and has minimal play. And i too notice no score marks on the cam journal or inside the bearing. so i just saved $300 bucks. :D

Hi there, Welcome to UTV Board! I'm not sure what to say about Cub cadet UTV's , you might want to look at the Kawasaki mule 610, it cost about a thousand less than a new Cub, if you're looking for reliability and ease of getting parts. https://www.kawasaki.com/products/2019-MULE-SX-4x4 I would also check out http://www.atv.com/ They have a lot of UTV brands that they have reviewed.

Have you looked on Ebay?' I've seen several renegades for about 6,000 to 8,000. But i am not sure of the location.

Yes sir, I'll do that. What is your price range? Good luck with your search!

Welcome to UTV Board, I went to Joyner USA website and used their find a dealer/service i typed in Okeechobee, and there is not one within 75 miles of Okeechobee. 78 miles away in Englewood,FL is JD Custom buggies http://www.gotbuggy.com/locationcontact-us.html

Good luck with it! Feel free to ask about any other problems you may have!

Welcome! Pull the spark plug(s) and crank the engine to make sure you flush out any water from the combustion chamber. Hydrolocking as Alex mentioned can blow a headgasket, or worse, snap a connecting rod. Once you've made sure your combustion chamber is clear of water, you can replace the plugs . Also clean out the carb with some carb spray just in case any muck is in it, I would also replace the air filter if it got soaked too. And you will want to drain the oil in case any water got in the crankcase, and run oil through it (not engine running) just poor oil in let it sit for awhile and drain it. ONLY if the oil is a milky/grey color. You will also want to be sure no water got into the gas tank so dump it and wash it out real good. let it dry out in the sun and put fresh gas with a new filter on it. Alex summed everything up pretty good. I can't think of much else. What model mule do you have, that might help with others helping you too. I would also find a snorkel kit for it in case similar incidents occur in the future.

Doesn't joyner also use Chery engines?

I was reading a VS. article on ATV.COM, and they were doing a head to head with the Pro FX EPS, and the Textron Prowler. And they said Kawasaki is using a 812 CC Chery motor for the Mule! Kind of surprised me, i thought Kawasaki used their own engines for the mules. 🤔

Measured the bearing, its good. BUT, i need a new camshaft, the journal that rides in the crankcase cover is wore past the service limit. New is $122.00. I contacted a guy about used one to see if he measured the specs.

Need some ideas. the "left main bearing" in the crankcase, where the shaft sticks out, where the flywheel mounts, in the crankcase it has a non replaceable bearing. If it is wore too much, you have to replace the entire crankcase. Im going to measure it later, (from a visual it doesn't look too wore) but i was wondering if i could buy a ball bearing and put in it IF it is wore past the service limit?

Thanks a bunch!!

Going to try to measure the rotor clearences on the oil pump. manual says: (Use feeler gauge) Standard: Less than 0.14 MM Service Limit: 0.3 MM and i cant find a 0.14 mm feeler gauge. ????? i think, if my math is correct it comes out to .005? 5 thou?

Need to get y'all a picture of the honing job Ted's did. A work of art! When i went there, the machinist asked me what grit stones i was using, all i new it said was "medium grit" from the parts store. He said it was too rough for honing. and i might have broke or wore my rings pre maturely.

1 thing left and thats getting a new shim for the crank. and setting end play,

Back from the machine shop. Everything was perfect, so i went ahead and dropped 20 bucks for a professional honing.

Taking it to the Ted's wednesday (tomorrow) they're going to mic it for free (yay!) and see what's going on.
