ok well my locker was nt working properly so i tore everthing apart and found that the two gears that was side by side where the gear slides over top of them to engage it had a lot of play in it took the bolts out of the ring gear to find out that 2 bolts was snaped and that most of the rest of them was worn or deformed .... what is the upgrade kit consist of and i m going to get new bolts tomm from tri corps or fasten all ...i have another rear end that i am using parts from that the two gears are very tight on

Yeah get new bolts & lock tight the hell out of them. If you can safety wire them also that would be even better if you know how to properly safety wire. The kit has upgraded bolts which Lenny machined the heads on and shims. The biggest upgrade being the bolts & liberal use of high temp lock tight.

The stock bolts wiggle loose then shear off. If they stayed tight no one would have issues most likely.

red lock tight i got napa to order the new bolts today and yeah i m pretty sure i can drill some holes threw the new bolts and wire them up .... i was disappointed when i found out they did nt have anything harder than a 8.8 the only ones i could find in the right thread was to big of a head ....

Are the head 10mm and shallow? Regular bolt heads won't clear, search for McMaster and follow them, I did a right up on what you need and how to grind the heads down to clear, Red lock tite is good, but yellow is a better. Find the post that says to use shanked bolts and there are instructions in there too. good luck.

it is an 2008 as well and i tried tri core ... fastenal and napa .... IRC in ohio is where i got the right bolts .... but the head was a 13 mm vs a 10 so i had to cut it down

sorry i did nt take any pics it is back together and locking in and out and running smooth

Get some loctite too http://www.utvboard.com/topic/2795-tapered-roller-bearings/?p=16079 this is what I used on my bearings, but it's probably good for your diff too.

And while I'm here, may I suggest that every time you have a wheel of the ground, push and pull on the top of the tire and see how much play you have.

IMHO the two worst problems with the Trooper are the diffs and the wheel bearings, get the roller bearings, repack the grease and loctite them in place

I had a couple of bearing fail, but I got right back on the road because I had most of a spare and it had the right parts in it. I like the idea of the shank on the new bolts extending through all the separate pieces so you don't have a place for shearing to start, plus this is the strongest bolt you can buy, 12.9, and NO, I haven't had any problems since. I think if you get thing tight and loctited, you can put it on your do not worry list, you did read about Lenny's instructions to sand all mating surfaces radially, right?

      Hello,
      Before I invest $10k+ into a brand new UTV for the farm, I want to get my feet wet with a fixer upper and learn the mechanical side of things. I acquired a 2022 Hisun Axis 500 (Lowes-specific model) from an auction for $500. It has only 200 hours and 120 miles on the engine. It looks like the previous owner used it for ranch work and didn't drive it on trails, deep water/mud, or anything too crazy.
      While it runs and moves, it has some problems. It struggles to accelerate up any incline in high and low range and sometimes stalls when I let off of the throttle or change gears. When I apply throttle in neutral, it sounds like it is struggling for fuel/air and pops. When I decelerate, there is a grinding sound coming from the clutch, which I've read to be related to the one way bearing and is semi-common. The last thing I've observed is sometimes the speedometer display sometimes will show a much higher value for a few seconds after barely touching the throttle. Based on the documentation, if a problem is detected from the sensors, the instrument panel display should have an error code rendered on the screen in place of the time, but this isn't happening. Here is a video showing some of these issues (engine is exposed with console removed):

      Here is another video of the clutches in action:
       
      I've done some research, but information on this specific unit and sister units is limited. There does seem to be transmission and clutch issues reported. I still need to check into the head gaskets. I don't have the equipment to test compression right now, but I do plan on ordering what is needed soon. I do have an order in place for some cables to read the diagnostics from the computer. There is a shop two hours away from me that works on Hisun products, but I am hoping the problem can be identified and is something within my ability to handle. Below is what I've already investigated.  I am leaning towards the primary clutch needing replacement right now.
      After getting it home and unloaded, I did the following maintenance/checks to it prior to operating it further:
      Changed the engine/clutch oil (and filter) and gear oils using manufacture recommended viscosity Changed the air filter and checked for cracks in the air intake flow. Verified good suction. Cleaned the throttle body Changed the spark plug and verified the gap was within spec (0.6-0.7mm) Changed the coil and coil wire Changed the fuel lines, fuel injector, and verified the fuel pump was outputting the correct initial prime pressure for ignition and continuous pressure after ignition. Also completely emptied the fuel tank and made sure octane 91+ fuel is being used per manufacturer specs. Ran seafoam through system too. Cleaned the spark arrester and verified no cracks or gaps in the exhaust flow Changed out the O2 sensor Checked all wired connections to ensure they were secured and no breaks were visible Checked the belt for tightness and for any signs of wear and tear Verified 4WD and the differential lock function as expected - still hesitates and struggles uphill Verified the fan gears in the shifter are not corroded and working as expected ECU was reset after replacing sensors and fuel-related parts  
       
      Thanks!

      2016, Hisun 500 turns over great but Spark plug is firing when I turn the ignition key on. I’ve got good fuel pressure to the injector. Pulled plug out and it is wet with. gasoline. Air filter is clean. Turns over great just does not even try to pop or start.. I’ve checked off uses and they are good when I turn the key on I’m getting power to the injector.. I’m not hearing the injector pulsing, but may just be my hearing.. With the spark plug getting wet with gas I feel like the injector is pulsing and spraying. Any suggestions would be great. I don’t know the hours on the unit offhand, but it has 600 miles on it. Thank you for your comments and advanced.

      Got a new RTV XG850 Sidekick and wanted to know if anyone have any problems with theirs.

      Bought a Coleman 400 UTV (pretty much a Hisun), the previous owner tried to replace the timing chain, couldn't time it properly and sold it to me. After some hours I figured out how the timing all is supposed to be set (I think/hope) and as I am reassembling, I noticed that the water pump gear was awfully hard to spin. I held the gear with my hand and spun off the impeller. I checked the bearing, spins great no obvious issues noticed other than this o-ring which seems to be out of place? When I remove this o-ring and reassemble the WP, it seems to spin nice and easy without a drag. I looked up the service manual (although very inaccurate info there often) and don't see this o-ring present. Am I missing something here or what? Any input? 
      This is not easy to access once the engine is back in the machine so would like to avoid having to deal with this if it becomes a problem.

      I have a 2016 sector 250 that I got with a broken left crankcase cover. I bought a new cover and gear shift indicator not knowing about the contact washer that goes under the sensor. Any help on where to get a new contact washer or how to bypass the sensor is greatly appreciated.
