not sure if it will work or not, as i am unfamiliar with this machine, but it definately couldn't hurt.

maybe if you were a bit more specific: a-arm bushings? or something in the 4wd?

if it's the a-arm bushings, just make sure that they won't interfere with the mounts in any way... because when the suspension is fully compressed, they might hit part of the frame and snap right off.

it can be done you would have to take the bushings out though and put a grease groove in them about a 45 degree angle all the way around

actually all you have to do is drill the right size hole in the center of the other tube at the end of the a-arm tap it then just screw it in. ive done this with three different quads that i have had and its always worked fine
