    RZR transmission bearings

    Who all has changed their bearings in the transmission on their RZR's?

    I am going to change mine after a few failures others had at Sand Mountain. Just not sure if I am going to pay to have it done or do it myself. I would have Ben do it but he is almost 700 miles away.

    Any advice from any of those who changed them out themselves? How difficult is it?

    Ed, can you list the needed bearings it takes to do this job. I have a list but want to make sure it list all the bearings that need to be changed.
    I assume they are "open" not sealed bearings since they are in a oil bath application?
    Any advice before I tear into it? Tips or tricks?

    Tim mine was a 900 not sure if there the same bearings or not . They were open bearings . It was for the most part straight forward .

    My understanding is the 900 and 1K are the same.

    Thanks JC8. Maybe Crazy or Milos will chime in if they read this.

    I'll have to find the part numbers. You'll need a 3 jaw puller to change the bearing and a press. A clutch alignment tool to line the transmission back up and a special socket to tighten the transmission to engine bolts. I made a socket by cutting apart 2 sockets and welding them together. Polaris sells the socket though. They sell the alignment tool too but there are after market companies with way better tools. Like Sparks Racing and a couple others. The socket and clutch tool is good to have for future maintenance. That is critical to good belt life. Make sure you seal the cases good polaris has had allot of leaking transmissions over the years. Oh and yes they are open bearing made for oil bath.
