Mike spends a fortune on some new STM clutches and shows us how to install them properly.
Nick takes his first real rip in his new 2014 Wildcat X Limited.
And Doug, Rick (driving X Limited), and Mike drag race and get COVERED in mud!

[@atlnative8222]

Doug is awesome wish I had a friend like him around to show me how to do all this badass stuff, man you guys are lucky to have his brain 🧠

[@URBANAMERICANTAC]

Doug is hammered in this video. Lol. It's great.

[@SXSBlog]

You aren't wrong....lol

[@michaeldupre1382]

possibly videographic evidence Doug may have some Cajun blood in him. Sporting the Solo cup and not spilling a drop. LOL.

[@AllThingsOffroad69]

Lol! Just rewatched this video. Man I really miss drunk Doug!

[@SXSBlog]

This video is probably my all time favorite. Only one I ever filmed with a DSLR

[@stevenjensen3296]

[@lue1975lue]

Classic! Love Doug's drinking in this one :)

[@WildPathHillBillies]

[@SXSBlog]

Turns out kids watch lol

[@Story53s]

Rum and coke Doug needs to make another appearance. With the out take of DIElectric grease.

[@kenneider5317]

that looks like a ton of fun!!!

[@bigkahuna1206]

Omg Doug looks like a kid.

[@FORD6689]

Love the OG'S..

[@97MrFluffy]

Here Because of the SXS Universe group.... And Drunk Doug is Best Doug 😂

[@MrKeithJ2]

I didn't realize how much of a pain these things were to work on before the xps and x3s. Man does that look like a PITA lol I didn't switch to a sxs until 2017 think I waited an appropriate amount of time

[@Raptorlifts]

Man this is hilarious to look back on how you guys look back here. Was just looking for some info on my 2016 mav and pulled this up haha.

[@corolla0500]

What do you think of the STM clutches for the 2016 Mav xDs turbo? Thinking of a set and a tune

[@archerwood9743]

I am in Mississippi and we don't get much snow but we got mud and I can relate to that last part

[@MidwestMechanic]

Rewatching these old videos first thing that caught my eye is Mike with the snap on jacket straight baller😎 wonder how many payments he's making on that sweet baby

[@patrickcampbell5823]

Love Doug on the sauce!!

[@2strokesimdone833]

I miss yall workin on these classics.

[@kessler89canampowa]

I wish Doug had a maverick again, come back to can am Doug! Lol

[@civilizeddelinquent563]

No shortage of debt...I mean money with ol Doug!

[@CumminsDriver]

I just bought an X and ran up on this video(even though its not even about the cat... ). I was surprised the X ran so close with the stock maverick. I figured that extra 10ish horsepower of the maverick would show up a little better. I ride Ky/Tn trails so i hardly get out of low range and looking forward to the great suspension the cat has. Hopefully it holds up decent, but I bought it knowing they have some quirks and common issues and paid accordingly. I think it'll suit me well

[@dustinwpearce]

I miss these old videos so much

[@perezm714]

Just checking out this vid after 4 years of being posted. Good info there.

[@530-club6]

I just had a stm tuner secondary get junked from a primary bolt snapping.

[@therowdyboysnetwork2827]

Little did you guys know that in the future you would have side by sides that produced over 200 horsepower and around 20 inches of travel.

[@aaronfoster4513]

Besides clutch what parts would you replace, to help performance to overall safety of the engine, turbo, belt, cooling.

[@bryannelson-airtimegrafix6954]

do you guys have a vid on removing the primary, secondary and full dissembly of them on a 2015 og mav turbo?

[@FORD6689]

Yeet yeet from Nashville tn..

[@burtonryderx]

Do you know the: Helix angle Springs weights I have the same setup and am trying to understand what combos work best

[@brokemisfits4955]

[@michiganripper7658]

Heck yeah dudes

[@terrybirdhowtod.i.y6008]

I own a 2017 can am maverick 1000r xmr. Just curious if wrapping th exhaust like y’all have done on these machines make a noticeable difference or not. Cuz I know these get hot ass hell in side especially this time of year

[@Tyl8erbri]

Hey Guys, I don't have a sxs but I did just install a stock clutch in my 2005 sportsman 500 HO with a QSC clutch kit. Didn't want to spend the hundreds of dollars on tools to take the clutches apart so I dropped them off at the local dealer (New Boston Crane, in NB, Mass) great ppl... anyhow, when I installed the clutches w new springs the deflection was good as from what I can see in your vid. but I was/am concerned about the fact that the belt it partially outside of the rear clutch, like you have left yours and said to be ok. I have never worked on clutches, basically did this one my self and as long as you guys think this is ok it helps me sleep easier. I was about to bring it to the dealers until I saw this. thank you and I'm subscribed and can't wait to learn more.

[@SXSBlog]

+Brian Tyler Man, sounds like it should be ok! We appreciate the comment.

[@izom]

...you guys ride the canam, wildcat and rzr....can u recommend the wildcat?- like the look and sound but why these suspension problems??

[@craigtreeguy]

I got a good old rachet wrench 8mm and no need to remove the skid plate

[@brendennino9630]

Do a review/test drive on the new can hammed

[@wilemuse]

Doug is making me thirsty.

[@jamaster6040]

What are the benefits of stm clutches vs clutch kit !

[@13ktostay]

Can you tell me the thread pattern on the STM belt tool, Lost mine in last move

[@danjim7056]

My buddy has a rzr and it only has the primary stm clutch on it. Does the secondary make a big difference?

[@christopherselig8626]

Sad that Rick was there in the beginning and is no longer with them😥

[@wilemuse]

I like snarky Doug. Is it the drink or the heartbreak? Is it the sour kids?

[@TheIrongutz]

Doug must have been on “Trailer Park Boys”, never spilled a drop.

[@brandonsmith4367]

Question for you guys, where is the battery located on 2015 can am maverick xds turbo?? I can't find it. HELP PLS!!! thx guys!

[@sergioramirez6767]

Rich rules bby

[@sirhammerhead800]

A company does make a belt deflection tool .its fairly cheap but if you're not using it every day I'd save my money.

[@SXSBlog]

Absolutely. Doug and Mike both have a really good knowledge of CVTs so they set the deflection by feel.

[@garytyree6659]

We need more drunk Doug

[@tonyryder5391]

What clutches are you running ?? RAGE 6? OR RAGE 3?

[@hellyeaseabass9715]

Hey guys, do you have any additional info on the specs for the clutch and secondary? I’m looking to order on for my 2015 xds turbo just looking for a little insight on the specs. Great job on the install video, that should help a lot when I do order the parts 👍

[@corolla0500]

Have you found anything on this?

[@HDnUmBeR2]

Where it all started

[@swampdonkey3790]

Let’s go back to Doug’s house!!!

[@jaybosak2767]

i know the roads where slick, but you should put the tire pressure in the rears low, she'll lift the nose up pretty good then, you guys already know that though, just thought I'd comment on it

[@SXSBlog]

Yeah we probably should have experimented with wheelies before Mike sold this unit..

[@justinteal495]

Put these up against the current machines 😂

[@merza16465]

Their is stm clurch kits 4 my teryx 800

[@mikelmiller4290]

[@bryannelson-airtimegrafix6954]

I have a 15 1000 turbo with 100 hours on it! and my cltch makes that same clunking noise!! is that normal?? thanks

[@SXSBlog]

Yep, they rattle a bit, nothing to be concerned about

[@bryannelson-airtimegrafix6954]

so would that clutch set up be worth doing to my ride? im in the cali dessert pretty much open fire roads and some hills! I mean the things hauls ass but if im not gona much more outa it with that clutch?

[@Jizden_Mipanz]

I'm guessing this is one of the episodes that some "turd burgler" reported you for??? what an "ass master".... we call these kind of dudes "shmippy whippers" where I'm from... this episode was super fun to watch! godspeed bros!!!

[@SXSBlog]

Just jealousy

[@williammartel9415]

I see Doug is a hater of STM clutches.

[@jchap9115]

Wow that's such a bad place for a belt.

[@08CspecGT]

@sxsblog.com why didn't any of you guys get a turbo OG mav?

[@SXSBlog]

They came out right after we got our first round of machines, by the time we were financially ready to move up there were other interesting options that pulled us in

[@chillingwithbros3428]

Fruuh

[@sweettimage]

Have question. Machine only has little over 100 hrs. Expensive yard art. Invested 55G's beefing my 2016 Can-Am turbo machine. Motorsport done something to machine, thinking i'm a dumb girl. Ex bf a "so" called ATV mechanic?? Test, drove, my 2016 Can-Am turbo. The dude driving to fast for 1st gear, shifted, grinding the hell out of gears. Had to scream to "Stop" then put in gear. Machine IDLES, at 15 rpms NOT at 5 rpms. I personally, installed new "Idle throttle body yesterday". Still idles at 15, worst part is shifting in & out of gears while, Parked. Is freaking hard. This, again lead to grinding again. I prefer the old school clutch on the floor trans. I would guess "Synchronous" issue, plates spinning, when shifting. Belt driven I know nothing about? Please, help.

[@donniepartipilo5853]

C'mon guys. Don"t be douche bags snd tear up the trail like that! There's a point where you should have enough sense to hook up the winch or tow rope and get going. Watching that YXZ get stuck a dozen times in the mud was about as entertaining as watching mud dry!

[@SXSBlog]

The trail? Do you mean Doug's back yard which is KNOWN for us tearing the shit out of every time we get a chance?
