Title: Re: Thrashers Polaris lives!!!!!!!!! Post by: RaptorTom on February 05, 2006, 10:15:48 PM Tharsher brought his quad to my house this weekend for some long over due repairs. ;D
All 4 wheel bearings,rear swaybar links, rear drive shaft,front struts, ball joints,rebuilt the starter, replace one front axle, rebuilt the other front axle out of two different axles, and a tune up.....and thasher is back in action. Title: Re: Thrashers Polaris lives!!!!!!!!! Post by: RaptorTom on February 05, 2006, 10:16:51 PM You would not believe all the play he had in those wheel bearings!
Title: Re: Thrashers Polaris lives!!!!!!!!! Post by: RaptorTom on February 05, 2006, 10:18:59 PM All that is left is to put the plastics back on..
All this just from wear and tear from the mud. Title: Re: Thrashers Polaris lives!!!!!!!!! Post by: qt314nfla on February 05, 2006, 10:21:39 PM Doug- I wish I was gonna be able to ride w/ you for the virgin voyage on you're new used quad. Congrats on getting back up and running. It's been long over due. I don't know how you've been handling not being able to ride. I've been off mine for a month and it's been killing me.

yeah, it's all nice and tight now.....doesnt sound like it's gonna fall apart if u touch it now..the thing was beat to death....basically replaced the entire front suspention, amongst other repairs. but it feels much nicer now :) it's all put together and ready to roll....battery can use a good charge tho. i'll put the winch cable on where ever i ride next. it's been tough not bein able to ride.......part of why I have not been on the boards much....too easy to get the urge..and have a broken quad.. but i'll be riding next weekend!@#!@ Title: Re: Thrashers Polaris lives!!!!!!!!!

i think that was the first ride out with it! looky there! my rims really are chrome! hey, I wear a helmet a lot (but not always, as I should)! especially up in Ocala, those tree branches hurt on top of the head! Title: Re: Thrashers Polaris lives!!!!!!!!! Post by: Moose on February 07, 2006, 08:56:02 AM Hey Doug I found a pic from when your quad was new. check it out. I remember when I first got my quad, ask Digit and Yunt, I didn't want to get the hubs under water, well no more. Good to see you back in the running. Man I get a chance to ride with you again and I'm down for a spell. See you end of the week. Six months is a long time. Title: Re: Thrashers Polaris lives!!!!!!!!!
