What tools do people use to do the routine service on there quads? I have a SP500 and a SP335 that I need to change the oil and grease the fitting. Are there any tools that make this easier? I think I need a new grease gun because mine doesn't have a flexible tip. I'm just curios what others use. Thanks.

 

Ruff,
The oil and filter are as simple as a 9/16 socket and ratchet. (atleast on my 97 Scrambler)
As for greasing, do you have an air compressor? If so, then I would suggest an air powered grease gun. I have a Lincoln and its works great and saves LOTS of time. Whether you use it on your quad or anything else,(especially when you're having to hold it on the fitting with one hand...)Its worth the money. If you don't have access to a compressor, just buy a good quality manual grease gun and the flex hose attachment. (Lincoln is a good brand)
I'm sure those Sportsmans have twice the grease fittings that my lowly Scrambler has.. so quality tools would be worth the investment.

 

I use a Lincold pistol grip gun with a flex hose. I have never had much luck with a flex hose on a lever gun. Sears sells a nice tool kit in a plastic box with sockets and comb. wrenches.
