If you are going to use the OEM bands a large needle nose pliers and a flat blade screwdriver will work. Use the pliers to squeeze the band tight and the screwdriver to lock the band into the notch. I've tried several auto style CV tools and they are less than ideal for the OEM bands.

Have the dealer install it? You made a funny, ? BTW guess what the dealer technician will use? Pliers

That style CV band is EASY to do with pliers

You can't use a hose clamp in place of a CV band.

Yes you can I have done it car Cv boots and so have alot of other ppl

OK.....

Not sure why ALL manufacturers waste money on specialized CV bands then, oh wait I do know - because a hose clamp does not provide close to the same clamping force as a CV band

I have that CV band tool and it bends/tears the ears up.

So your saying all manufactures are right? And no a hose clamp does not provide as much clamping force but it still works. Why is this bothering you so much?

There are two ways of doing things, the right way and the wrong way. Using a hose clamp in place of a CV band is definitely the wrong way. Giving poor advice is what bothers me. It would do in a pinch as a trail fix but it's not a long term good idea.

I could probaly bet money that not everything in your rzr is polaris manufactured so you must be just as dumb as me

Wow, just wow.

Hose clamps, zip ties, & safety wire.
