850 sportsman HL transmission tear down and stuff

sportsman 850 and 1000

[@hondaonbkt]

Hell yea man.so when you wanna put the 54% gr in my bike

[@jonnyfleur81]

I have a 2016 850 scrambler transmission that I am tearing apart. I am assuming the chain is slipping on the main rear drive gear. The thing is stock with 100 hours. Orginal belt. Very disappointed. Its got to be a defect.

[@mattc7060]

They make a shorter puller for the xp chassis so you don't have to pull the axle.

[@jonnyfleur81]

Ya and the polaris will make you wait a week on order and still give you the long one.

[@markyrocks69]

Definitely don't need to pull the axle off with the right puller

[@lukeschermerhorn5452]

What do you think about the old Yamaha Timberwolf 250 4x4?

[@lukeschermerhorn5452]

Joshua Overman yeah I just bought it yesterday and from what I hav seen it will be really easy to work on on my old bf 750 it took 2 weeks on and off working on jetting it but I think I could do 20 of these in that time

[@atvsteve2021]

would this be the same on a 21

[@MudPuppyOffroad]

Yes

[@LGFILMS224]

Hey man I have a couple questions about the transmission. If you’re still on here I can send you my number so we can text back-and-forth about the questions I have.

[@joedon1706]

My 2017 850 Highlifter is less than 3 years old. 1600 miles. Top transmission bearing and seal need to be replaced. Junk. I did switch the cooling fans like you suggest. 20 minutes later I switched them back. Does not work.

[@endurotruckererniedesjardins]

I got my clutch puller from .. ROYAL DISTRIBUTION in Ontario Canada, I DO NOT HAVE TO REMOVE THE AXLE to pull the primary clutch off, 20 bucks.

[@endurotruckererniedesjardins]

I bet with the lift you can run the sportsman 1000xp or 850xp or scrambler shocks to increase suspension travel, I run 30 inch monstermayhams on my 2015 1000xp with NO LIFT, just cranked the preload to the hardest setting and minor rear fender footwell trimming. If I bottom the shit outta the front it runs a bit. 4000 miles on 30s n no problems.

[@NotJustAnotherCody]

Just fuck n with ya Nice glad to see 850 put to the test with capable rider can't wait to see the thrashing its about to receive. You need a camera man so nothing is miss sure you could find someone that would volunteer in your area

[@valverdeariel1]

I have to remove the transmission cover as the fill / drain bolt are stripped from prev owner, i will replace cover with a new one, question is when i pull cover off will any gears or springs fall off? Thank you appreciate your video.

[@306GokartsCustomBuilds]

I have to replace the bellcrank shaft on 550 ..how much of this transmission do I have to disassemble to get to the shaft

[@barharborbasher249]

Great modding man 👌🏽 did ya get rid of the Rzr 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@codywhite0943]

Put off buying a highlifter because I knew someone would eventually do this swap and wanted to see results first. Your awesome man!

[@JacobOverman]

Rice Krispies 😂😂😂

[@dolanle2676]

Hey what tire would u run on a 1994 honda fourtrax 300 with 18% gear reduction

[@sandroluna3556]

I think sportsman xps have their own clutch puller size the puller shouldt be that long

[@hondarancher1260]

So is the secondary shaft were low range happens and does the hL have a low range gear reduction

[@ililitoxicreaper139ilili2]

Are you going to do a snorkel extension?

[@MudPuppyOffroad]

Nope

[@1LEEDER]

I'm also in the market for a 850 hl. How many miles does yours have?

[@skeletonsquad3432]

Hell yeah bro I love your videos been subscribed sense 100 subs love you bro keep it up!!

[@justinburdett260]

Any ideas what would make the gear shift stuck in hight gear without ripping the trans out? It's stuck running or off.

[@MudPuppyOffroad]

I'd disconnect the cable from the sub Trans and see how it feels. What's the oil look like?

[@concealit4800]

How do u remove the input shaft do u have to split the case??

[@NotJustAnotherCody]

Hay MP will my Honda atv tire 27"tires

[@bsllsbadw]

Dude your the man I've been thinking about doing this same thing to my 1000

[@300deep8]

What tire would u run with a stock Honda 300

[@jonesmark442]

How did you make your clutch puller?

[@gshew6769]

Very interested in what the top speed will be.

[@joedon1706]

Schwinn makes a bike. Polaris makes a quad. JFYI

[@MudPuppyOffroad]

Very original You're the first person to ever comment that!

[@lordviper5695]

How much for the sound bar

[@MacNewlove]

Where can you find the parts ? Just through Polaris do you use rzr gearing for the swap?

[@MudPuppyOffroad]

Yep it's all OEM parts zilla is cheap

[@barrywilliams4660]

what happen no warranty lol

[@MrShockPanda]

Three wheeler vids plz

[@NotJustAnotherCody]

Preferable chicks

[@mitchlence9241]

Dude ur awesome

[@whitenas]

Great video thank you. Question. If you only needed to replace input shaft what would be needed besides shaft? Are bearings pressed onto shaft?

[@MudPuppyOffroad]

Yeah need a bearing puller

[@whitenas]

@@MudPuppyOffroad thanks you for replying. I saw my secondary clutch wobbling and I thought shaft was bent . But I checked shaft and it's ok. Is this normal or is clutch bad. Deflects about 1/16 of an inch. Thank you for your help

[@K5_seany]

Think it woyld be worth doing a gear reduction on my 660 grizzly on 31" outlaws. I would like a little more lowend.

[@MudPuppyOffroad]

Grillzey is geared really high and unfortunately there is no reduction for it

[@K5_seany]

I heard you can take the gear from the rhino and it is a reduction.

[@devinredus2313]

A tip my brother and I found when removing the primary clutch. If you use a hardened dowel or rod that slips all the way into the shaft then thread in the correct bolt behind it and begun threading it in.

[@MudPuppyOffroad]

That's exactly what I ended up doing that was the wrong Fuller it was for my RZR

[@devinredus2313]

Works like a charm. What brand pinion plate did you use? Lookin forward to see how it turns out.

[@chrissybrown6106]

Great video especially the crispy treats...

[@MudPuppyOffroad]

Psh you know you're jelly

[@joshbryant9056]

I'll have my reverse chain in monday. Any special tools should have?

[@MudPuppyOffroad]

Depends what's messed up in there. hopefully you won't need any special tools but if you have to disassemble the transmission shafts completely you will need some bearings spitters

[@joshbryant9056]

@@MudPuppyOffroad i hope it's only the reverse chain. I ordered the rzr reverse chain. Was told it's an exact fit and is stronger.

[@waylonphillips5626]

Got a scrambler 850 heard a pop in reverse now wont go in reverse think its the chain ? Would it be tough for a shade tree mechanic to dig into?

[@MudPuppyOffroad]

Yep reverse chain

[@MudPuppyOffroad]

It's a lot of work but there's nothing too tricky about it

[@MudPuppyOffroad]

You will need a clutch puller and bearing splitters

[@trendonProcell]

Where u located

[@MudPuppyOffroad]

Central Florida

[@martycrotts5232]

Great vid!

[@reineralvarez4409]

hey mud puppy I have a sportsman 700 that wont go into low gear with you knowledge and experience what do you think the problem could be

[@calebsnell4600]

Reiner Alvarez he’s not a mechanic you idiot

[@reineralvarez4409]

Thanks for the info you idiot I know that if you don’t have anything informative to say how about you keep you comments to your self

[@MudPuppyOffroad]

Not real familiar with that tranny my guess is something with the shift drum though

[@reineralvarez4409]

Thanks man I guess I have to take it apart to find out what’s going on

[@sxscustom]

Martycrotts is the ostacruiser cruiser to Polaris. Super nice guy vary knowledgeable. @martycrotts

[@Taylorboy2392]

Are you going to need to do any computer work? Thought it was governed to 50mph and not just the gear reduction?

[@MudPuppyOffroad]

Yes I'm going to have to put a tuner on it

[@MudPuppyOffroad]

I don't really plan on going over 50 much but I also don't like turning that many RPMs while trail riding

[@Taylorboy2392]

Definitely agree, we have to ride some roads between trails and I hate to have it tached out when everyone is cruising

[@Taylorboy2392]

How are your fans cooling?

[@chrisrambo6810]

That slack in your chain is normal thats also referred to as drive line back lash if you let off the gas quickly on your bike or give it gas quickly you may here a slight pop there built like that on purpose when i had my 850 i called polaris about it thats what they explained

[@MudPuppyOffroad]

Yeah it really isn't that bad when the shafts are held up and their normal positions I'm replacing you anyways though while I have it apart only a hundred fifty bucks

[@chrisrambo6810]

Mud Puppy i would too being as you had it apart and all good video man

[@dynamiccalisthenics1922]

hey mudpuppy whats the part called that you replaced for more top end? , do you know the part number or where I can get it?

[@MudPuppyOffroad]

I'll post all the part numbers in the description when I make the assembly video

[@dynamiccalisthenics1922]

Mud Puppy alright thanks
