I have a TRX200SX ( two wheel drive )and both rear wheels are locked up. I took the front sprocket off and they are still locked. I tried to take the rear axle apart but couldn't break the nuts loose. Also , I have gas dripping out of the upper rubber tube coming from the carb. Any help would be appreciated.

 

Forgot to say it is a 1986.

 

well it sounds like you will have to try to get the axels out and see what it looks like

 

Do you just take the nuts off of the end of the axle? Don't know a whole lot about them.

 

I recently got an 86 TRX200sx fm a friend....it sat for many years. Thought the rear was locked up, but found that the brake shoes where almost bonded to the drum....lots of CRC, etc., and finally had to beat off the drum.....a pry bar on one side and another on the other....large hammer! Sounds like your problem! A lot of things to take apart so remember how you did it....easier to go back together! My atv had pin holes in the tank...some larger than that..checked new tank and not cost effective. Used some fiberglass matt and gel, repaired "outside" then used a gas tank liner material (radiator shops can help you with brand) tank is back in service w/no leaks! Remember you pet. **** has a filter attached to it, so remove the whole unit prior to repair of tank. Use duct tape to cover hole when you line the tank if you go that route. Also check that SHORT piece of gas line fm tank to carb...they get brittle! Also check the pet. **** itself, mine leaked due to the alumin. being ate up fm old gas sitting in the tank.

 

I had a similar problem. I ended up using two large channel locks to get the bolts that hold the drum on, then used a rubber mallet and heavy duty flat head screw driver to get the drum off.

It took awhile to get it to break free

also, I had a gas leak from a worn gas line. I just cut piece of it off, when to the local auto store and bought a 12" length of fuel line hose (only needs about 6 inches), bought two small hose clamps and I was on my way.
