How to Change the Oil and Transmission Fluids on a Polaris Ranger

[@travharrell1713]

Followed this last night to service my dad's ranger. we looked like a NASCAR crew, We got the whole thing done in about 40 minutes. Thanks,

[@GregSchaumburg]

Really helpful video! Thanks for sharing and providing a video that actually shows how to do change the fluids, where to look for the drain and fill plugs, and what products to use. As a new owner of an older ranger I appreciate the walkthrough, great job on this video!

[@brandy3996]

Thank you so much, I've been trying to find a video on how to change my Ranger's oil for a while, and this is the first one I've come across that actually shows how to do it. Great video!

[@Deathbybunjie]

Cool, good luck!

[@dickowens8970]

Jeff Morton, for sure !!!

[@robbillpries6198]

Just watched one of your videos here and I got to say that's probably one of the best and most entertaining how to videos I've ever seen I just stumbled on your channel because I just bought a Polaris ranger of course with no manual no nothing one of those as his deals and was looking for a little help on finding the oil fill cap. So you definitely just gained another subscriber. Thanks for making this video!!!

[@Deathbybunjie]

Glad to hear it, thanks for watching! Good luck with that Ranger!

I'm fairly new to your channel so I'm playing catch up. I have a 2012 Ranger 800HD. Love it... even my wife; after grumbling about NOT needing it... really likes it now... my Grandson really likes going "fast" on it. (He's 3 now) I've used "Purple Power" cleaner/degreaser on the underside etc of my Ranger... it really gets any oil off with very little effort. (Just my 2 cents) I like your tips on making this task easier. Keep it up... enjoy all your videos. After watching your channel.... I have a strong itch to ditch my compound bow and get a crossbow. We'll see. My 64 year old shoulders (rotator cuffs) aren't so good so a crossbow is looking better all the time. Really enjoy your videos.

Hey Rich around 12:18 For taking out or putting back in they make a Universal Joint to put on your Extension . And what it does it articulalate`s so you can be all the way on the part and you don`t have to lean the extension . Thanks for the editorial i`m thinking about getting me one .

[@dickowens8970]

Thank you !!! This is the only video tutorial I have found...and it’s a great one !!!

[@deere3321]

I service mine and it is somewhat of a pain, Polaris didn't design it to be easy. For the oil filter, I use K and N with the nut welded on the end. Just make sure you DO NOT overtighten them. The end of the oil filter will leak if you do. One half turn after the gasket seats is enough. 32 oz. fills my transmission up. I've never had to add any more. Make sure the allen wrench is all the way in these plugs or you will round out the hole. I shortened my 8mm allen for the transmission fill plug so I can use a universal on my 3/8 drive ratchet and extension. Thanks for the video.

[@Deathbybunjie]

really good tips here, thanks! I like the shortening the allen wrench idea. I bought a wobble extension, too, to try out. maybe i'll do a follow up video on Ranger maintenance sometime and include some of these ideas and a review of the wobble extension. thanks again!

[@78cooper78]

Somehow made it back to this video again, but another tip.. always take your fill plugs out first. Don’t wanna drain all your fluids then have some sort of issue of not being able to get your fill plug out.

[@Johnsplots]

Nice, very detailed how to! My boss has the 6 wheel version, its a pain to work on at times.

[@Deathbybunjie]

+John Frederick great vehicles...nothing's perfect but I can't live without it lol. Thanks for watching!

[@Johnsplots]

+Death by Bunjie I know that I would love to have one!!

[@dannysmith2925]

Very informative. Thanks for sharing.

[@markreischer4470]

Thank you, very informative, i love your videos

[@AnaxofRhodes]

We bought an 07 700 XP (EFI, maybe?). Changing the fluids and oil has been a nightmare of a process. No good tutorials or descriptions. Besides this one. Thank you for the great vid.

[@Deathbybunjie]

Glad to help, thanks for watching! Good luck with your Ranger.

[@MrVtArcher]

I don't know if the Ranger has one "It should" but on car and trucks there is a vent on the differentials that we"Auto mechanics" clean when servicing differentials. They can get plugged and cause the seals to leak. If you have a vent you should make sure its clear. Great video

[@Deathbybunjie]

I don't know about this but I will sure check into it! thanks for the tip!

[@erictriplett2540]

Thank you very informative video I appreciate your time making it.

[@Deathbybunjie]

You're welcome, I appreciate the time you took to watch it and I hope it helped.

[@theathletesjourneytv]

Where do you find that bolt attachment set ? Great video

[@CalvinsCorner72]

I have used Valvoline and Lucus as well. Lucus is a awesome product!

[@Deathbybunjie]

+Calvin's Corner72 haven't done me wrong so far!

[@Deathbybunjie]

+Calvin's Corner72 ...and just the right amount of gunpowder added lol

[@terrycrissman7392]

Did you ever clean the spark arrestor? Can’t find a video about it.

[@Deathbybunjie]

Nope a good thing to think about though 💯

[@richardsoule278]

Great job.

[@ernieguilbault9862]

have you tried using a wobble extension for the transmission fill plug?

[@Deathbybunjie]

+Ernie Guilbault yeppers, since this video I got one, works perfect. Good eye! I didn't even know they existed but my buddy sold me one at his auto parts store.

[@bigweb0311]

Death by Bunjie what’s a wobble Ext? Lol

[@tobysmith4188]

How about a 2015 hisun

[@78cooper78]

Great video. Anytime after you power wash it, be sure and grease all your grease points. Also, check out the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act. I use AMSOIL in all our powersports equipment, but then again I’m a dealer so I may be a tad biased. If you ever decide you want to switch, let me know and I’ll hook you up with a good discount. Thanks for all the videos.

[@brandonwalton9397]

Great video I enjoyed it

[@Deathbybunjie]

+Brandon W thanks! Glad to hear it and thanks for watching.

[@sidnorton5147]

How do you get over a quart of oil in the trans. and diff? I get about 3/4 out and it starts running out.

[@Deathbybunjie]

+Sid Norton make sure it is sitting on a level surface but other than that it only takes what it needs.

[@coldfear50]

mine is same way man

[@coldfear50]

they want u to buy 2 quarts

[@bigalforsyth]

exactly what i was looking for, thanks! Please tell me you work in radio or tv with that voice?!

[@Deathbybunjie]

+Alan F glad you liked it, no radio lol but thanks!

[@chadburson7602]

I would have to suggest wearing shoes while using any high pressure device, but otherwise, thanks for the info !

[@Deathbybunjie]

+chad burson a very good point. That would be a hard lesson to learn lol.

[@jerrylittle8922]

You had any issues with your Polaris?

[@Deathbybunjie]

I actually sold it, but generally had no problems with it, pretty durable piece of equipment!

[@backspace4093]

Death by Bunjie how many miles or hrs do you have on your machine/

[@Deathbybunjie]

I don't know for sure, how do I find out? Is it on the dash?

[@backspace4093]

It should be on your dash right under your speedometer

[@bigweb0311]

I take my entire skid plate off. Makes it easier and cleans up better. Next step mud guards!! Pain in the ass to clean

[@Deathbybunjie]

That's a great idea, thanks and thanks for watching

[@CalvinsCorner72]

Gonna have to stop putting gun powder in that oil! It keeps exploding! lol

[@DLKHAY]

thank you for making this video. every other one on the tubes is crap compared to yours

[@markvietti]

ahahh that jump was cool...

[@Deathbybunjie]

Lol

[@Labyrnthdom]

be careful putting regular engine oil in any atv. the detergent s in some oils will ruin the bands in the engine.

[@mph5896]

What bands are you speaking of in a Ranger engine?

[@brent26]

Dang!!! Waaaaaay to much talking. But some good points.

[@xraykadiddlehopper8067]

Didn’t show any actual work👎
