An more and more more famous amendment RZR proprietors are doing is casting off the plastic spacer this is at the crank shaft withinside the pressure seize meeting. This can boom your to RZR’s pinnacle pace via way of means of as a great deal as 10 mph.
The RZR’s transmission is a pulley primarily based totally regular pace transmission (PVT) that includes three primary assemblies, the pressure seize, the pushed seize, and the pressure belt. The pressure seize and the pushed seize each include conical formed pulley halves, known as sheaves. The transmission operates via way of means of sensing centrifugal pressure that motive shift weights to push towards rollers that push the movable sheave in the direction of the opposite sheave to pinch the pressure belt. The nearer the 2 sheaves are driven collectively the in addition out the belt is driven.
Removal of this spacer lets in the 2 sheaves to return back absolutely collectively wherein the belt might pass out to the biggest diameter at the sheaves. We have determined this may boom your RZR’s pinnacle pace everywhere from 5-10 mph. Some will say that is going towards the authentic layout of the transmission, however we speculate that it become designed with out the spacer and become brought on later as an clean manner to restrict the RZR’s pinnacle pace for legal responsibility reasons. We have heard a few arguments that elimination of this spacer will lower the existence of your pressure belts, however we’ve but to have any issues. A right spoil in duration at decrease speeds for the primary a hundred miles on a brand new RZR or after a brand new belt is established is noticeably encouraged to make certain an extended belt existence.
Removal of the plastic restricting spacer is a easy system that calls for a seize compression device that may be bought via your nearby cost to tow a polaris rzr dealer.
- Remove motive force and passenger seats.
- Remove panel this is at the back of the seats to benefit get entry to to the outer seize cowl.
three. Remove the frenzy rivets and fasteners retaining the rear seat base and get rid of from automobile.
- With a screw motive force loosen the clamp that holds the seize outlet duct to the seize cowl and slide it off.
- Remove outer seize cowl screws and get rid of seize cowl.
- Remove pressure seize meeting via way of means of casting off the seize keeping bolt that threads into the crank shaft. (Facing the rear of the automobile the pressure seize is the seize meeting at the left) To get rid of the seize keeping bolt you’ll want to steady the pressure seize meeting, aka the spider cage to preserve it from spinning. A timber hammer take care of slipped into the spider cage works properly for this. The seize meeting is pressed onto the crank shaft and may be pretty clean to knock free via way of means of tapping on it with a rubber hammer. (This is wherein the manufacturing unit provider guide might inform you to apply a pressure seize puller, which you may order via your nearby dealer, part # PA-48595)
- Once the pressure seize meeting is eliminated take it to a piece bench wherein you may deployation a spring compression device. Once it’s miles clamped down you may loosen the 6 three/8″ bolts that maintain the seize cowl plate on. Once bolts are eliminated you may then loosen the spring compression device unloading the seize spring after which get rid of the duvet plate. Before casting off the duvet plate use a sharpie to mark wherein it’s miles aligned with the pressure seize meeting. They want to be bolted lower back collectively the identical manner due to the fact it’s miles the manner they had been balanced from the manufacturing unit.
- After the duvet plate has been eliminated you may slide the primary seize spring off after which get rid of the plastic spacer that sat inner it.
- With the plastic spacer now eliminated slide the seize spring lower back on then with the seize spring device compress the meeting lower back collectively till you may get the three/8″ bolts started. Tighten them the relaxation of the manner torqued to twenty toes pounds.
- Reinstall sheave meeting via way of means of sliding it lower back onto the crank shaft, then re deployation the seize keeping bolt that threads into the crank shaft. Be certain you’ve got got the lock washing machine, thick washing machine and the plastic collar at the manner they got here off ensuring the plastic collar facilities withinside the seize shaft as you tighten. This bolt wishes to be torqued to forty foot pounds.
