Ep #14 Honda Fourtrax ATV, rear axle, Differential tear down

[@mikewerner3797]

I feel your pain. I got a “free “ 96’ fourtrax 300 that had been sitting outside uncovered for years. Should have known better.🙄 I had to friggin break my brake hub into pieces with a hammer then had to cut through what was left of the hub with a saws all and an air cutoff tool. Then I had to slowly drive the hub off with an air chisel. I tried to drive the whole axle through from the right side like the guy on this video, but it wouldn’t budge so I said forget it. Luckily my bearings appeared to be ok. Better to stop before I break something. It’s been an ordeal.

Ha! Never thought of that heating trick for the pinion bearing. Nice

Can’t wait for preseason sled videos!

I'm about to tackle this project on my 85 big red wish me luck

[@trikelyfe6090]

Update..... everything went well. Easy job. Only snag I ran into was the bolts for my trailer hitch snapped. So either tap and die or new axle tubes... or maybe even just weld one. Honestly idgaf and it will probably just not have one

Marty McFly Working on machines can be fun. Waiting on parts and blowing money sucks right

[@soaringfreedomgiraffe393]

Marty McFly It’s good having a couple units so working on one at a time can be relaxing

[@03lnr]

Does the axel come out either way or just beat it to the right?
