I take it that's its prob ok to use reg automotive grease on the ujoints? But what about all the other lube points on the rzr? Will reg grease work or need the stuff polaris sells?
I only have one grease gun so if I can use auto stuff that would be great but if it needs some other type I'll just buy another just for the rzr.
Picked up some green grease yesterday, guys looked at me like I was crazy when I asked about it lol. They had never even seen it or sold it before haha
Rode it around the yard and no more squeak...see how it holds up next time out going through water. So far (3 rides) it's been squeaking every time by the end of the day.
Where's the grease point for the front shaft? I can't find the thing haha.
And where all do y'all ride in Tn edge 22? Somewhere to ride at night when it's this hot would be awesome too.
If your talking about the U joints their is not grease fittings for them unless you install aftermarket U joints.
I ride at Windrock mostly, and at night sometimes also.
Green grease for zerk fittings...... than BELRAY waterproof grease (tub of grease) for anything else that you need to take apart to grease (bolts included, for the guys back east)
Depending on which machine you are talking about but if its a 800 their is a fitting where the shaft slides up on the splines of the transmission on the 900 or 1000 their are 2 on the shaft's one in the middle where the two shafts are splined together and one where the shaft is splined to the transmission in the back.
Not sure why you would take the skid plate off. There is a hole in the skid plate right at the fitting. Place your Rzr on level ground, place in neutral, then move the Rzr until the fitting is at the bottom dead center. Using a flashlight to see the fitting makes it a bit easier.
I seem to keep pulling the center cover to run more wires, so I have just been greasing it when I pull that cover off haha.
Right now I have just been using lithium grease since that's what is in my grease gun, but I'll look into getting some green grease since I'm just about out.
Are you guys putting grease on the actual joints as well?
