i have a 99 400 scrambler 4*4. i need to pull the drive clutch off and get a new one. i know they sell pullers for this application, they are 35 bucks. has anyone ever made a home made puller out of a bolt. i cant see spending 35 bucks on a puller that looks like a 10 inch grade 8 fine thread bolt with some threads dyed in the middle of it. i am pretty crafty and can weld i want to make my own puller. any info will help. i need to get that clutch assembly off. also need to purchase a good clutch assembly. the belt sheave is damaged on mine. anyone from my area have one?

 

If you plan on keeping this or any Polaris quad SPEND the $$$$ and get a puller you will use it more than you think.

 

thanks. where did you get your puller? is a belt removal tool worth getting also?

 

I got mine years ago from Ebay.You roll the belts off and on by hand

 

beleave it or not i had my pulled for years because the sleds (most of them)take the same puller. there was just a post onthis a couple days ago. 3/4" fine threaded bolt and eithe r2 nuts or weld a nut on the end.

 

Here is the clutch puller I made. I also made a few other tools that I will post pics of.
Here is a flywheel puller that I also made.
And here is the clutch allignment tool that I made.

What do you guys think?

 

hey you must work at a machine shop, that looks real good. whats the demensions on that drive clutch puller. i saw one online that was 10 inches long with the threads starting at about 7 1/4 inches and ending at 3 inches.
are the threads on that one 3/4 fine?
i think i can make one too. save myself 30 bucks. i am cheap hahaha.

thanks guys.

 

must be nice to have access to a c&c machine lol. good looking tools. as long as the bolt you get is long enough your all set. just get a 8 or 9" bolt and that should do it.

 

I like that flywheel puller.

 

yeah its nice to have access to a machine shop. I am only in high school. I am one of the top ones at the school and in the area in both autos and metals. Most of the time I am out smarting the teachers. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

Here is a pic of the clutch puller with the dimensions. The thread pitch is 3/4-16 fine.
