well update time, got a new driven pulley from ebay and bolted it up, put on a brand new belt and the cover and off she went, rolled around to the back yard and stabbed the throttle and she wheelied the whole dam back yard. scared the crap out of me lol, this is the first real time I got to ride it and longer then 5 mins of tearing a belt in no time. took it down the street and back and she hauls butt ! really want to thank the friends that helped me out with all of this. I really appriciate the help. now I have found a couple other issues and will see what I can find. I know it needs front ball joints and tir rods, but most of the rubber fittings to the airbox and under it are messed it as well as the fuel line coming from the petcock to the fuel line is all rigged up. it looks like someone has some small weedeater fuel line going into a 5/16" fuel line to the pump. but atleast its running !

I have a set of 28" outlaws a buddy of mine gave me, I just need to get rid of the rims I have now, they are only 10's and the fronts are to skinny. that fuel petcock thing has got me wondering what the heck its supposed to be like, I looked on a few parts sites but it isnt to graphic on that area. the piece that comes out the tank on mine just dont look right.

2001 Polaris 2wd Scrambler 400 is what I got, works great so far, it has a red spring in it so not sure if its factory or not though.

I think my old spring was orange, but I know that was aftermarket. whoever put the old one together must have preloaded it wrong as mentioned but someone on here. it destroyed all the internals. now just tring to figure out if I am going to sell it now and buy something newer or put some money into this thing. it needs ball joints, tie rod ends, fuel petcock and the rubber fittings and such replaced and fixed, just dont know if its a money pit or what.
