some times a broken cage will work and then not so it still could be.

 

my armature was bent and rollers gummed up from water put in new armature and rollers from jd put in awd fluid plugged in and tested on hood of 4wheeeler and while turning shaft the differential engaaged will install next see if it works under a strane or load.how did u pull it down if so what was it

 

lifted rear off the ground after install put it in low awd back tires spin an front pulls also so water in the hillard is not good also bent armature cheap fix compared to dealer

 

fishy..the only thing I did was change the front diff fluid and the next time out with the machine it engaged. No clunking or wired noises at all. My issue could have been just water in the diff. When I changed the fluid it did appear as though there was a good amount of H2O

 

Also I'm thinking of selling it to get a Ranger. Any thoughts on what its worth?
2005 Sportsman 800: New tie rods and ends,new ball joints,new rear carrier bearings both sides, new EPI HD front springs. Other than this awd issue and what has already been fixed, I've not had any other issues. Only 1100 miles on her.

Let me know what you all think it is worth.

 

in southeast texas its worth about 4500 to 5000 only problem with the h2o in the front is that when it sat up could have rusted things up inside mine had a little had to sand it out mine is workin now need to change the seals on it
