3 Part Question

[SOBX]

So, I picked up the '87 Warrior I was talking about and its got 1 issue. The axle is bent. I've looked on a few places like www.rockymountainatvmc.com and the only axle I can find is an adjustable race axle. I want one that's an inch or two over stock, but not adjustable. Is there any way I can straighten the one I got and add wheel spacers?

Next, I'd like to drain, flush, and refill all fluids. On my trucks, I usually add SeaFoam to everything (engine oil, trans, and even power steering and brake), run it for a day, then drain and replace with Amsoil. I run the new Amsoil for a week and replace again. It seems to clean everything out almost perfectly, albeit expensive haha. Should I do that with the quad?

Lastly, we ride and work on the UASF Academy Riding Stables. I'd like to quiet the exhaust down as much as possible. I looked at the FMF Power Bomb header and Power Core IV S/A Silencer, but apparently it's not too quiet, don't laugh, I didn't know lol. I would like to replace the entire exhaust. Someone please point me in the right direction.

I can help with one of your questions. My 87 had a bent axle. I bought a used stock straight axle to replace it. As far as widening the rear, there is an easy way that cost $0. My stock rear wheels are 8" wide but the center is offset. One side is 5" and the other is 3". I "flipped" the rear wheels which widened the rear track. I am sure some guys are reading this and shaking their heads, but I am on a shoe string budget and have noticed no ill effects from this so far. I would also like to know about the best way to flush the engine.

Also, FMF has a quiet core silencer but I don't know how silent it really is. I do know for a fact that if you want a quiet exhaust, stay away from HMF, lol.

I agree with Frit on flipping your rear tires to make it wider now for exhaust i cant say, i have a yoshimira muffler on my 01 and its just alittle louder than stock i think but i also have a BigGun muffler on my 88 and its loud!!! Im an Exhaust Tech at a shop and i can tell you if you want more performance its going to get louder no matter what..

That axle won't work if I remember right a 87 has a different axle? Or was that just the carrier?

What do you have against adjustable axles? It's a coller design and bullet proof.


As for pipes.. It's gonna get louder...

 

[Gen1Pat]

Same axles, different carriers.

 

[bones]

Just the carrier is different .... Axle is the same

Sorry didn't see that pat had posted but yeah pats right
