Rally up members, I think we all are going to be in on this repair!! Get that tire off, and let's dig in dude, heard the A-arm bolts snapped possibly?

 

Thats for the wishes of my safety everyone, tonight my but finally helped pull it home. The wheel still spins, so thats keeping me with hope that the axle will slip back in once everythings repaired. I'll get detailed photos tomorrow. Both upper and lower A-Arms need replaced, not alot of frame bending but its not pretty, photos to come.

Meanwhile can someone help tell me a place I can buy the X package yellow A-Arms from? I'd hate to put a black one on lol.

Yeah i'm in Tioga County, love it

 

hey i feel your pain mine hit a tree going to fast in the snow, got mine fixed now

 

Ok people heres the damage

Upper A-arm, check out the bends in the arm


Lower A-arm, just as bad, actually worse, broken at the far right part


A view of the broken part from the lower A-Arm


The shaft that was pulled out of the axle, since the wheel still turns, i'm hoping this will slide right back in?


Entire view, the silver long thin part ( not sure what thats called ) is way off level, hoping that will just flex right back


And the muffler is back to stainless!



That sucks man, great to hear yours is fixed up though.

 

Ok, here's what I recommend; first of all you are going to need a quality set of Craftsman tools, rachets, sockets, open ends, etc. To go a long with that, a couple of cans of Liquid Wrench are going to be in order, then most importantly, a couple 12 packs of Heinekins, and at least two more "brains" to analyze the damage, and of course drink the beer, and hold the cup out for you when you need to throw a bolt or two in the bucket!!!

 

Sounds like the right way to do it haha. Alright, once I get the arms i'll attempt it with my bud who has the good tools.

Where can I get already yellow a-arms? The cheapest i've found the arms was $85 upper, and $66 lower, both black.

 

I gotta agree....that rubber is looking tired. Hopefully it won't cost too much to repair. Good luck.

 

at least you got a new shiny spot on the muffler and it even shows POLARIS to boot!

just shows that even a wrecked popo will atleast try to keep on going lol

 

looks to me like you got lucky , but thats gonna cost ya

but it looks like the tree is 3 feet off the trail on a straight a way and your more lucky you did,nt end up in that brush pile too... ouch

 

Wow..the damage is more extensive than ur first pics showed!! U did get luck u didnt get hurt. Good luck with the repairs...hope u find a good deal on the parts needed!
