i have a few questions about the warn 424 for my 2004 wolverine. Do you recommened it for my quad. I heard alot of people say that i should get one but how does it benefit me, does it improve anything. Im thinking about buying one but i wanted to know if its worth it.

 

What do you use your quad for? I got it the first day I got my Wolvy, it gives you the ability to switch into 2WD. It's excellent, frees up the steering and you have more manuverability.

If you want to switch from 2wd to 4wd, get it.

If you ride mud 100% of the time, you don't need it.

 

I absolutly love mine...gives it a much more sporty feel!!!!

 

Yes! GET IT! I rode my Wolverine for 6 years without the 424. When I installed it, it was like a completely different quad. I loved the way it handled. It was much more sportier. It was more fun blasting down the trails in 2WD. You can powerslide it, do donuts, all the fun stuff everyone does on their 2wd quads. Its easier to steer, it acclerates a little faster and you probably get more miles on a tankful of gas. You don't know what you're missing. Get it! I can't believe Yamaha doesn't have switchable 2WD-4WD installed on the Wolverine at the factory. They'd probably sell more of them than they do now.

 

Is it hard to install? I know a little about atvs but how long does it take?

 

It will take 2-4 hours depending on mechanical ability. It is a fairly straightforward task. You will need some metric sockets and a drill if you decide to mount it on the plastic. Some others on here might have better ideas on where to mount the ****. I put it on the left side, on the hard plastic right below the handlebars. By far the best addition to a Wolverine. Like others have mentioned, it becomes a whole new bike.

 

i've been thinking of getting the 424 as well and from what i read on this site it's helping me make my decision..i have a question wich is alittle off topic the question is for gdcharlton...how well do u like ur detriot gearless locker? thanks again

 

I absolutely love it as well!!!

It makes all the difference in the mud and snow. It does give you the true 4wd!!

The only thing is that it does make the steering <u>alittle</u> heavy, (not the feeling of having it locked all the time, the Detroit locker does let some slip under miner load) ... that is why i would suggest the 424 with it, that way when you are bookin it along the roads steering is lighter.

It is pricey though, just for the heads up....
