99 Scrambler 4 X 4

[BIGBLOCKXJ]

My scrambler does not want to come out of 4 wheel drive.
The light on the shifter goes out, but the front stills wants to grab! Any ideas or help?

Thanks,

back-up.

when's the last time ou replaced the hub oil and fluids?

[BIGBLOCKXJ]

I did not know there was hub oil. How do you change it? What should I replace it with?

Thanks,

Mike

i forget how to drain it, but polaris makes a hub oil, and you inject it through a removeable screw in the front hubs...

i have the detailed manual for it i could scan some pages for ya if ya need...

we have 2 99 scramblers

A scan of the hubs would be great if you do not mind. It still seems as the
transfer case does not want to completly disengage. If I stand on the gas, it will take off then all of a sudden it will dart to the right, like the front end grabbed traction.



Ok, so I go out and put the quad on jackstands. The front wheels rotate foward and backwards freely. So I raise the back and start up the motor, engage the drive in forward, and about every 10th or so rotation of the rear wheels the front axle shafts try to rotate one or two revolutions.

Any ideas??

Thanks,

Mike

hrm.. puzzling. i'd still recomend the oil change for sure. i'll try to get the page scannd for ya today. i'd look in the owners manual and see if there is a part on it in the troubleshooting. it's hard to pinpoint the problem over the internet.. all i can say is try backing up for like 15' and then go forward and see if it locks out. maybe there is a spring in the hub that is bad idk. i'll have to take a look at the manual.

the transfer case doesnt disengage it drives the front axles all the time the hub kick it in & out if changing the fluid doesnt help try putting it on stands in 2 wd in gear & watch the front rims if a if a front cv joint/axle tulip is bent it will wobble & cause them to engage & also bad wheel bearings will cause them to engage

[BIGBLOCKXJ]

Time to go back out to the garge and start looking. Thanks for the help. Just an FYI, what does the button on the handlebars engage when you power it up?

Thanks,

Mike
