Default SPORTSMAN 500 REAR AXLES???

We have been riding Sportsman 500's since they came out..All of a sudden on a ride last weekend (Memorial day )we spun two rear axles...One on a 99 and the other on a 2000 model..They both spun on the inboard end on the left side...Has anyone else expereinced this??? p.s. One rider is 69 years old anth other is 58 so it was not from abuse...[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

I have only seen this one other time. A guy over on the FRONTIER had one spin on an 04 Sportsman 500. It looked like the splines just wore out over time till it finally spun.....
