I have a bad sqeeky shock on front of 2000 kodiak.Has anyone else had this problem and if so any suggestions.

 

Yes I have,
It is the Bronze or Brass (not sure which, I was in a hurry)bushings in the mounting holes. Take them out and clean and grease them. I was thinking about installing grease fittings but have decided to find the self lubricating (impregnated) bushings instead. I'll post the size and price of them soon.

 

I've also had this problem. wd40'ed mine and stopped for now.Makes an awesome machine sound like a piece of $#@* doesn't it. Rock; do you know of any after market oil filter that will fit the 00 kodiak? fram? ac delko?

 

well thats not good, I traded off my 98' wolverine for that very reason and got a 00' kodiak. I had that wolverine in at the dealer three times trying to fix that problem. I asked if they had or knew of some after market greasable bushings, they told me not to there knowledge. I have got well over 100 hours on my Kodiak and have still not had that problem yet, but it sounds like I am going to sooner or later. I am praying for later.
