My 2000 Sportsman 500 has a small of amount of play in the steering. I thought I read here some where it had to do with a plastic piece. Can anyone shed some light on what I need to check or replace. Thanks in advance.

 

Usually its play in the lower plastic steering piece where the post fits in,plus a little tie rod end slack can help exagerate slack. I havent done it,but I think other posters have updated to the bearing type lower fitting, havent checked if stock steering post will work or not?

First check your tie rods ends, inside and out. Get em from here
