I do need to order a new coupling assembly, as there is definitely wear, but it does drive perfect now until the new parts get here. Thanks for the help!!

This is the cable with the pin that I was talking about

I took the coupler out of the rear end but removing the two bolts that hold the rear end in, and sliding it back just a little bit. There was a strong spring behind the coupler, a lot stronger than the spring on the drive shaft itself. I put the stronger spring on the drive shaft, flipped the coupler around so the good teeth are to the rear of the machine. I now have full engagement. Heading for a test drive now.

I believe that is the stop that hooks to the brake pedal for shifting into reverse. I will post a picture of mine for you in a little bit.

Hi all, my name is Rob and I'm from SE Michigan. I grew up on 4 wheelers and dirt bikes, but just recently bought my first sxs. I bought a Vector 500. As much as I would like to have a 1000 ranger, it's just not in the budget. So I see this as a "starter machine". I am an excavating underground foreman/operator.

Ok I did some digging on this thing this morning, as it turns out, the rear drive shaft coupler is pulling out of the rear differential. That is what is causing the skipping. What I don't know at this point is, what holds the coupler into the rear end. I can push it in by hand with ease, but it pulls right back out when I let go of it. The splines all seem to be in good condition still.

Hello everyone, I'm new to the forum, and looking for some help. I have a 2021 Vector 500 that I purchased in July of this year brand new. I was very careful with the break in period, following Hisuns recommendations to a tee. The machine now has 37 hours and 589 miles on it. It has never towed anything, and only been off roading once, but not hard, just some hill climbing and a few mudholes. I mainly use it for cruising the back roads, and going hunting. The other day I was running up to the gas station to fill it up with gas and I was in low range driving down my private road. When I got to the main gravel road I stopped, shifted into hi range and went to take off. When I hit the accelerator pedal, something popped, and it something in the drivetrain is skipping. Or so it feels. I limped it back home, about 900' and put it in the barn. It does this in low and hi ranges, but not in reverse. 4wd seems to help a little, but I am not confident that it's not coincidence. At 10 hours I changed the oil with Lucas 10w40 SxS/UTV synthetic blend JASO MA2 with a factory filter. There was some large shavings/pieces in the oil when I changed it, which I was told is normal due to the wet clutch break in and assembly. It didn't seem right to me, but I was told not to worry about it. I did add the dipstick extension tube, and am running 3 qts of oil. I've tried calling 2 different shops near me that I got off of the Vector website as service centers. One will not answer the phone or call me back, one said they don't work on Hisun anymore, so I think I'm just gonna tackle it myself. Does anyone have any ideas on where to start? Thanks in advance!
