I recently broke a cv joint. I replaced both front axles with Gorilla Axles. When I finished the front end, I tried to run the bike on the stand, but the rear tires would not turn. I checked the brakes and that was not the problem. I feel that the differential is locked up. How can I get iy loose again?

 

which machine are you talking about? what was different in the installation vs the re-installation...

when you broke the CV joint, where did it break, right at the joint?

 

Sorry about that. I have a 2004 Sportsman 600 4x4. I broke the right front CV joint. I think that the problem could be a rear bearing that has locked up.

 

Hey guys it was just the left rear bearing that was locked up. I replaced the both stock rear bearings with pivotwork bearings. Problem solved.
