Hi,

My cousin has a 2005 500 APV that has had the front differential fail. To get through the winter he had the chap that looked at it pull the stuff out of it that was broken and re-assemble as a 2 wd. I assume the cage and rollers.

Now looking at replacing the complete diff or selling it as is because the parts and labor here in Canada will make it about an $1800 repair bill.

I have located a complete front diff from a 2007 500 EFI Sportsman.

The question I have is: Will this diff fit his 2005 as a direct swap?

Any help with this is greatly appreciated.

Thanx

 

Her's the models that use the same front diff as your 2005.

Possible that it may,but if it's a 2007 with an adc diff,really not sure on that as far as controls go.

 

Thank you very much for this information. I can continue to search for a frotn diff now that I know what years and models to look for. I am sure there is one out there somewhere.
