Installed new roller cage ?
Just put in a new roller cage in front diff on 2008 500ho. When I took the diff apart I thought I would see broken plastic all over the place but nothing the roller cage looked intact.There did not seam to be anything wrong with the old cage put the new aluminum one in and it works great. My question is what goes on the old cage do the clips or spring weaken. Or do the bearings wear down. Thanks just wondering nice to know for the future.

The plastic roller cages would either have hairline cracks that would cause them to constantly engage,some would warp which would cause the same thing or just completely shatter like many have found.Rare occasions some have found it was the armature plates fault. Best to change the plate out anyway along with a new aluminum roller cage.

believe its cause the plastic cage cant contain the force of the wheels spinning freely and getting a sudden lockup when wheels get traction in some situations thus exploding cage in little pieces I completely rebuilt my popo front gearcase no front drive put the aluminum cage in mine.The plastic one in mine was itact everything else was trashed guess that's when I bought they said 4x4 was not working wonder whyjust having some drive fluid might have helped mine

There did not look like anything was wrong with my front diff it was full of clean oil no metal bits in the case the magnet worked great but it would not engage. A few times if I got the rpm up it would engage. So I am still not sure why it works now. I plowed snow with it today and worked great Thanks Tux
