My hours aren't racking up fast enough. Still have 15 to go.

I did mine last week.

Mine tomorrow.

I did mine a couple weeks ago and decided to also change the front diff and tranny fluids. Was a pretty easy job. I never cut out the frame like some have done to more easily access the rear transmission plug. I have found I can work it out to the side using needle nose pliers after loosening.

We took a dye grinder and took a little off to make it easier to get the plug out.

Did my oil and filter this weekend to, what a bear it is to get to the filter.

I removed the clutch housing vent, helped a little bit, not much though>

 

[Rocklong]

Same here I removed clutch housing hose and spun it off by hand.

What kits and oil are you using for the oil changes?

Thanks

 

[Stump Jumper]

All Polaris while under warranty. Pictures and document.

 

[vscorsa]

Thanks Stump Jumper for the quick response.

Is this the one you mean?

[Stump Jumper]

That looks like the right one. I ordered mine off of Amazon. Came with three quarts of oil as the OM says it takes 2.5 quarts.

 

[vscorsa]

Great, thanks

What filter fits the 1000? I cannot find anything in the book.
