And that is where the Polaris shines bright with it's 4X4. You can hold it WOT and fling mud 10' straight up in the air and get out of a tight spot w/o needing a tow!

That is just what its doing, but have'nt noticed it running with all wheels on the ground,but I will run it down the road and check it out, thax that helps. If this thing it broke already w/ under 500mi. its not a very tough system, like I said before this thing is not abused or beat on.
I still would like someone else to try this and report back on the out come, has to be done w/04 and newer.

Toy,
You are correct the original was white plastic/nylon and the replacement is black and much beefier. It is also about 1/8" longer which takes up some slack in the clutch that the white one allowed. When you order the replacement part from Polaris, you will get the black one it has replaced the white one. They obviously knew it was a flaw and replaced it with a better part.
The best price I found was www.discounthondaparts.com they sell Polaris and Honda parts.
I loaded some pics of the old basket I took out. Hopefully you can see them. Click the camera below my name on left. Sorry I didn't take a pic of the new one before I installed it.
