Title: I'm back after almost 8years
Post by: Defender88 on March 19, 2012, 04:06:29 PM
So its 04 my parents house was destroyed by a hurricane and we moved to north georgia so I sold my ds650 to help with the cost. Met a nice little georgia peach, yada yada yada. Married with kids now, 4years in the navy and I was finally able to put aside some money for a bike. Found a Polaris 335 sportsman 4x4 on craigslist needing some work for 1200. Talked him down to under 1k and loaded it up. As of right now, needs a good cleaning, new fluids, a CV axle and Ujoint. Idles a little low, needs some seafoam for sure if not a carb rebuild. I used to have a blue yamaha blaster built by CP customs out in new orleans. Doubt anyone cept Bluesman remembers me

Ok started taking this bike apart, I sure hope its the CV axle that is making the noise and not the rear dif. Anyhow, It needs ALL new bushing on the suspension, upper/lower a arms and shock bushings. Anyone know where I can order all of these?

My old username was Cpblastergp54 and then slowestyfz450. I use to talk tons of sh*t to you for getting that 400ex. I use to live in vero beach now I am stationed at NAS Jacksonville.

Also I got the CV axle out and the inner joint was pretty bad. Had a real rough spot and was all rusty/muddy once I took off the boot. I had it on a jack and I put it in gear and spun the other tire and hear nothing so I am really leaning towards that one CV axle. Now I gotta find a place to buy all new bushing for the shocks and Aarms.

welcome back!!!! thank you for your service to this great nation, My son is a Marine ( OOH RAH ). I saw that atv on CL was going to call the guy ...snooze you lose :/
There is a place on Lane Ave in jax that can rebuilt that shaft for a lot less than buying one I will try to find the # post it for you.


Title: Re: I'm back after almost 8years
Post by: Defender88 on March 20, 2012, 11:39:45 AM
That would be awesome. The axle is only 110 but only the inner joint needs replaced


Title: Re: I'm back after almost 8years
Post by: Defender88 on March 20, 2012, 12:29:50 PM
I thought you were talking about Driveline on lane so I called and they sadi 60-90 bucks to replace the inner joint, Im going to go ahead and get that done so I can start getting this thing back together.

Drove all the way to palatka to pick up some bushings. Got to ride the bike around a little not bad but is really hard to get into reverse and it pops out almost everytime. Im thinking an oil change will help with that since its low.

Other than polaris oils what engine/tranny oil, and front/rear dif fluids are people using in the older sportsmans?


Title: Re: I'm back after almost 8years
Post by: Defender88 on March 23, 2012, 10:24:39 AM
Anyone? these polaris oils are stupid expensive.

you have to run the polaris oil esp in the Frt end,it has metal in it to make the magnets work in the frt end. oil I run Mobil 1 and a 7013  fram filter i think.


Title: Re: I'm back after almost 8years

Those wires are bolted to the frame where the ignition coil is bolted to the frame, correct? Those are ground wires of some sort then. What do they go to? Well.. What isn't working right now?


Title: Re: I'm back after almost 8years
Post by: svtbolt04 on March 24, 2012, 03:59:56 PM
Also, the linkage comes out of adjustment on the Polaris and you will have to readjust it to keep it from popping out of reverse.

Post by: Defender88 on March 25, 2012, 12:26:01 AM
Awesome thanks for the info. Ya I found the schematic but it doesnt help much. I need someone that knows these bikes to help me figure it out


Title: Re: I'm back after almost 8years
Post by: svtbolt04 on March 25, 2012, 05:38:17 PM
Is there a way for you to put it on here? I can read them. But seeing wires just cut seems like he removed something that was just bolted on..Maybe an air horn or maybe a radio..a light.. Could be a number of things.


Title: Re: I'm back after almost 8years
Post by: Defender88 on March 25, 2012, 06:17:13 PM
Some of the wires went to the left hub, there are two yellow/red wires and two ground wires left cut. Everything seems to be working but the battery is not charging.

I am reading here on the diagram that the yellow with red stripe is the battery charge coil wire.


Title: Re: I'm back after almost 8years
Post by: Defender88 on March 25, 2012, 08:06:08 PM
Ok, I have 3 of those, one of them I found where it went and reconnected it, the other two that are still circled in red, I don't know where they go, then the two brown wires coming off that relay/solenoid on the back wall...


Title: Re: I'm back after almost 8years
Post by: Defender88 on March 26, 2012, 11:17:51 PM
I don't know where to connect the two yellow/red wires.........


Title: Re: I'm back after almost 8years
Post by: Defender88 on March 29, 2012, 01:56:47 PM
I think Im just going to cap the two extra yellow/red wires since I don't see that they are connected to the 4x4 so they arent the root of that issue. and everything else works
