Have someone actuate the 4x4 mode and the 4x4 lock mode and watch the shaft that actuates from the 4wd module to the diff and see if it moves, you may just have a stuck shift fork.

Thanks Tim! How is your machine running?

 

thanks Tim will check that out as soon as it warms up today.

 

Good so far, no snow here to speak of and picked up a 19 Can-Am Maverick X3 XRS Turbo R in addition to my 18 Ranger XP1000 EPS. once I get them out of the trailer ill post some pics.


How's the western life?

 

Loving AZ. sold the Prowler, looking at replacement now! XX caught my eye!

 

Well finally got to look at prowler. Have been very busy here crap storm of work and breakdowns lately. I jacked front wheel off ground and tried to turn it with 4 wheel engaged, the front drive shaft tries to rotate I believe indicates 4X4 engaged,correct?

 

Yes that would indicate that the actuator has engaged that wheel to the drive, however there is one side (can't remember which one) that is permanently driven from the ring gear. the 4wd is just a slip collar that runs over a 2 piece pinion shaft to engage it.

Thanks Tim , I ran it into the snow in yard and seems to be engaged. Maybe I will try to run up A snow pile.Yes I still have them here Big piles and not much sun gets past the red pines.

 

I am suing Artic Cat for selling an atv, where the 4x4 drive does not work. I have been waiting over a year for parts. They said they were working on a new design. I have not been able to use my quad as intended. I have not been able to use the $4000 tracks that I bought from them for the quad. I have asked them to replace my quad with a new one or take the quad back and return my money. They have told me this is not an option.

My attorney is wanting to know any other people that this problem has affected. We are looking to file a class action law suit against Arctic Cat.

Please let me know if you are effected by this engineering problem and if you are interested in participating.

Thanks,
Anthony
