Tip 24. To make it easier to press in a bearing put the bearing in the freezer for a couple hours before installing. The cold temp will cause the steel to shrink making it easier to install.

Thanks,

The radiator cleaner sure makes cleaning the radiator a lot easier.. I use it after every ride.. Before I had to remove the oil cooler to get the radiator clean..

Tip #30. Try not to run your winch when submerged in water. Although they may work and I have done it on many occasions, a winch will create a vacuum drawing water into the gearbox and/or motor causing premature failure. You can tear down the winch and re-grease the gear box if necessary before total failure if caught in time.

Another tip is if your engage/disengage button is stuck or trying to stick it is a good sign water has done entered the gear box and caused the bearing to become rusty.(Some companies like KFI Products offer replacement parts so you can rebuild their winches instead of buying a new one)..

My Rhino tip.....

Got full doors? reverse your hood straps so the strap is now on the dash and the pole it goes over is on the hood. Now you dont have to try to get your hand between the door and dash!

today i changed a bearing on the rzr. i like most do not have a press to get the bearing out so i use the next best thing. a hammer and a piece of harden steel. it is not hard to do but its hard finding a way to hold the knuckle in a way to knock the bearing out. i use two pieces of hard wood but today i had an old steel wheel in the barn and it worked great to hold the knuckle.

I also changed the bushings and while trying to clean the grease from the a arm. i look at the tube and think that looks like a 12GA shotgun barrel. so i get an old 12ga brush and cleaning rod and it works great to clean the tube.
