How to replace a Polaris PRO XP rear axle!

[@travisfeld97]

This video confirmed that I still do not understand what happened to me! I pressed in 4 New HD bearings. Torqued to 180 Ft lbs and put in a new cotter pin. I was up in the sand dunes and my cotter pin sheared off and the nut backed off. basically took out my right rear and in the process of replacing all the parts. I have been on a few forums and only a few people have had this happen. Just interesting that you put on with an impact and anti seize on the splines. The pro XP manual actually calls for using a green loctite 680 on the splines. I have also been told to use red loctite on the castle nut to avoid this from happening again. Hopefully just a fluke deal but the loctite will be going on everything now!

Excellent video! I appreciate the time and effort to make it a “clean” video. Most of the time how to videos are in some poorly lit garage, guy has a cigarette hanging out of his mouth and swearing like a sailor. I was a Sailor in a previous life, it happens. Nice step by step as well. It’s also good to know what tools you’ll need for the job at hand. Thank you!
