Went for the first ride of the year this weekend in the Uintas . I came back and was doing some checks on the

trooper and noticed some looseness in the right rear wheel bearing . I checked the left rear and it is tight.

Looking at the parts breakdown I don't see any preload adjustment capability . Iam wondering if I should

just drive it and see if it gets more loose or do you think I have a bad bearing .I only have 245 km on it .

Also wondering if anyone has had any engine oil leak issues . I noticed a few drops on the skid plate right

below the crank pulley. I cleaned it off expecting to see more oil drops ,rode the rest of the weekend no more

leak, very strange ,oil leak are usually not intermittent any thoughts ? thanks

No adjustments on th rear wheel bearings. It's nothing more then a double roller bearing not more then about 2" long total. I'm amazed that it holds up at all. It just has no width to it. The stress on the bearing has to be way up there and a bearings life span is directly related to the load put on it so I don't expect them to last real long. Also check the thread "Rear wheel misalignment issues" (same Joyner forum). There are other things that can make the back wheels loose.

Sorry, I said roller bearing, it's a double ball bearing. That's worse.

      Looking for the left side shaft carrier where the rear bearings go for a 2014 1100cc sand viper, I understand an 800 cc carrier will also work.

      Honda Pioneer 1000-6 back windshield or screen.
      By Fmaxiron
      I just purchased a 2023 Honda Pioneer a couple of weeks ago and had the hard roof and a front Honda Pioneer windshield installed at the shop before taking ownership. As things are drying up here in NC, the grass and dust are beginning to fly right through the back of the cab while driving. I was wondering if anyone has any good recommendations on rear windshields, dust panels, or mesh screens to help stop this?
      Thanks a lot!

      Looking for a left rear shaft carrier (just the carrier) for a 2007 Joyner 1100 sand viper
      By rdc
      Hope I posted this in the right place. Looking for the left side shaft carrier where the rear bearings go for an 1100cc sand viper, I understand an 800 cc carrier will also work. I need the old style two bearing with the spacer in the middle, the new style with just the one wide bearing wont work. If anybody has one I'll buy it right away. my email is [email protected]

      Polaris RZR 800 Rear Differential Pinion Nut Issue
      By Sidewinder
      All mid 2008 through 2014 Polaris RZR 800 series have a big problem with the rear differential pinion nut backing off, allowing the pinion gear to shoot into the rear differential, destroying the rear differential. This has happened with machines with as little as less than 100 miles on them! Reports indicate that there are no problems, nor warnings, until the rear differential grenades, locking the rear axles solid! This requires the machine to be lifted onto a trailer, to be transported for rear differential replacement, as it destroys the case. After failure, rear differential replacement can be quite expensive: labor alone can run from $800-$1200 and a new OEM Spicer rear diff, if you can find one, can run from $1700-$2500! So, if you own any Polaris RZR 800 series between the years of 2008-2014, I recommend that you do this repair before further use of your machine. personally, I have grounded my machine until it can be done. Please check the online post for your own awareness.
