Arctic Cat M8000 Secondary Clutch Repairs

[@807tv5]

Same thing happened to me yesterday, broke the secondary bolt trying to tighten it. Your videos have been helping me out so much this season. Thanks

[@syxxes]

Glad that our screw ups help xD

[@shawnmclaughlin7418]

Canada has the whole snowmobile video whatever you want to call it on lockdown I've subscribed to you. my old sled and power modz probally the best in sled information.

[@stukorth9097]

Love watching you guys

[@dontecooper6040]

I had got the sidewinder 165 yesterday and took it out today is nice in the deep snow

[@syxxes]

I'd love to try one of those out.

[@lwiens9260]

Nice work on that bolt , I've had the same problem, came out once and broke off another time, do you recommend loctite ? Just replaced the primary with a power block it seems fine it's the secondary that seems to worry me !!? Thx

[@syxxes]

I run a powerbloc on my 2014 M8 and absolutely love it. As for the bolt, hit it with lots of blue loctite and a new lockwasher

[@lwiens9260]

Oh great, that's exactly what I did this week, it's an XF 800, and been great crossover sled for our groomed trails or back country in Ontario, cheers.

Hey Matt I just got a 2016 m8000 and I just noticed the secondary has a ding on the dish closest to the panel. I was wondering if it is something I need to worry about or not.

[@rileyollanketo8086]

How do you install a new snap ring (retaining ring) against the bearing behind the alignment washers? Thanks

[@benjaminrideout9893]

Was that a left handed drill bit im trying to remove broken head bolts on my xlt

[@kx85isweet]

That sled trailer at 9:47 what is it? Whered you guys get it?

[@syxxes]

That is a 2013 Nytro 141. This one don't make it out to the mountains very often.

[@2wheeler2fast-40]

wow what a mix up :-)

[@deansikorski6596]

Matt you can fix just about anything :) Good job. Can the Phazer Tamer do doughnuts clockwise? He has them mastered ccw.

[@syxxes]

Oh yeah, we can do em both ways!

[@807tv5]

To adjust belt deflection on the m8's do you just add those shims behind the secondary?

[@danielkatairoak4015]

807tv that's for clutch ailment

[@nate390]

They go in between the plug and the secondary, the shims behind the secondary adjust belt alignment

[@syxxes]

The shims behind the clutches are for the alignment/offset. The ones that go in front with the bolt are for setting the belt deflection.

[@jesse.jsmall0652]

@@syxxesdo you remove a shim or so to loosen it or add a shim or so I’m new to cat clutches apparently

[@joshhenline5476]

What causes this , ive delt with 3, 2015 m8000's with the exact same problem this year, not fun...

[@syxxes]

Bolt needs loctite and a good lock washer. It will break if it starts backing out.

[@joshhenline5476]

@@syxxes yeah we did that and it broke again 25 miles down the trail granted the sled has 8500+ miles, ended up putting all new jack shaft bearings, shims, everything... See how it holds next trip....

[@wthomasw2]

God damn broke the sled today I hit a bridge fence (idk how you call this) the whole front arm got bent :/ not a cheap fix

[@syxxes]

Gotta pay to play!

[@heathercarry1390]

Are you going to buy an 2019 artic cat Alpha 1 ???

[@syxxes]

Gonna be talking about the build for next year very soon

[@TheRick2130]

0:43 can you buy this dolly? or home made?..im sick and tired lifting yamaha :)

[@syxxes]

You can buy those dolly's. There are lots of different ones on the market. Not sure where these one's came from.

[@ArcticWolf24]

[@syxxes]
