clutch is rubbing the clutch cover, took it off , and verified, any solution other than buying a new cover ????. we purchased it in 1996 runs great no probs, other than normal wear & tear.

 

is the cover warped or is the clutch out of alignment

 

it looks like it might be slightly warped, it just started making noise one day. i can push it down slightly and it goes away, but can't seen to get i shimed just right

 

maybe u can heat the cover and bend it so it wont rub.

 

i tried putting , really hot water in the cover and letting it sit for a while , to no avail, was at a polaris shop just looking around and saw the mechanic working on a 425 4x4 mag,(own one of these too) he had clutch cover off and replacing for same reason, said you had to replace cause of heating warping etc,etc....but for 125 or 150 dollars for some plastic seems high .. so i thought i'd try something, maybe need to get tourch out ..thanks, are there any good places to purchase parts on the net resonably (i do have a polaris dealer close by and have ordered from before)

 

My 95 300 4x4 had the same issues. The clutch housing got hot because Mice had built nests in the air vent tubes. The cover got to hot and the soft plastic was sucked into the moving clutch. I tie-tied hardware cloth to cover the intake of both air vents (one runs up under the head light on mine). Of course, it could be cheap plastic that just ran out of life span, but the darn Mice are a constant fight for me.

 

sounds to me like a bad motor mount causing your primary to go out of align...just an idea

 

Spend the $$$$$ on a new one and save all the head aches.But check a few differant dealers that price sounded a little on the high side.You should only need the outer cover.

 

gross was just wondering how you made out, my 99 335SP started rubbing on the case. I was wondering how you solved your proublem?

 

You would not believe how many times I have seen this happen over the years.

Mice have cost Polaris owners a lot of money over the years.
