Is the vibration/ noise noticeable all the time, or just in AWD? Mine is fine in 2 wheel drive but has a noticeable vibration/noise in AWD.

 

It happens between 20-30 mph with either the 2wd or 4wd selected.

 

Any vibration in the front driveshaft will result in a pre-mature front pinion bearing failure.

If you feel you have an issue with the driveshaft - Get it repaired or one may suffer more extensive damage down the road.

Don't want to address -- At the very least install a driveshaft safety hoop.

:ride:

 

Good call never even thought about the pinion bearing.

 

I dont notice anything with mine I called my dealer to see if I needed to bring it in he hadn't herd of a service bulletin he ran my vin number and no service bulletin's of any kind are on my rzr do you think there is a seirial number break or something like that

 

Mine i got it went to get gas and just drove it back!!! .2miles

 

What?

 

Got it from my dealer drove it to get gas and drove it right back to the dealer ! .2 of a mile.

 

So you have the vibration???
Is that why you drove it back to the dealer???

 

2 miles on ours and it's obvious from 25-35 in 2wd. Going to do the 6 spline trick tomorrow night.

 

I dont guess this is a issue with mine. I dont feel any vibration and as far as noise, can you hear it over the wind noise at the 20-30mph range? I cant hear anything so I am guessing mines good to go? I wish they would find a serial number break, or a lot number or group to identify if your unit should be checked. I guess until I hear or feal anything out of the ordinary I wont sweat it.

 

I am not so sure I don't have a similar problem on my new 570. I also have a vibration in 4x4 only but it is only when the tires are slipping in mud.

 

dude this problem only appeared in most of new rzr xp1000, mine has same noise while i'm driving 20-30 mph, so i hope some peaple find an easy solution rather than order it from USA due to my country location, i should wait at least 2 weeks to get a new drive shaft :camorzr:

 

For anyone experiencing this problem, it has become well known that the issue is with the driveline being unbalanced. Many if not all of the machines come that way. I have a 2015 1000 that came with a way out of balance driveline.

Probably the cheapest solution is to send your driveline in to a shop and have it balanced for only $90. Check this thread for shop info if you don't have a driveline shop near you. : http://www.rzrforums.net/rzr-xp-1000/130011-xp-1000-owners-check-your-driveline-81.html

 

Yep, phase it also

 

Mine has a vibration in 4wheel drive also what is phasing is that like lineing up ujoints

 

Here is the fix for noise if you have a vibration the drive shaft needs to be balanced some ends are not straight.

Help need to know where to buy the best replacement carrier bearing for 2015 RZR 1000 Not the junk Polaris one

 

Sandcraft RCR makes a upgraded carrier bearing it corrects the driveline angle and takes the vibration n noise chatter out of the driveline! Check out the video it will explain we just came out with our GEN2 as well.

What is the gen 2

It's our generation 2 attached is a pic. Our gen 1 we machined and tig welded our GEN2 is now billet.

 

Can anyone install it? Difficult ?

 

It's takes about 2 hours for the first time it comes with full set of instructions not too bad.

 

Could some explain the the six spline trick for us.I must have missed this one.

 

Looks easier to install
The curve isn't as sharp
Which should help with the coolant lines

Can we trade in our gen 1

They are the same dimensions so clearance/install is the exact same the only difference it looks nicer since its billet. Is yours already installed? They cost more as well obviously.

 

Looks nice but I couldn't find any pricing.

 

Bolt on products that change the dynamics of your Polaris RZR XP 1000 | Sandcraft Motorsports our online store is open now just hit the shop tab

 

Well the gen 2 looks easier to install
Wait for the gen 3
Should be out in 2 months

No GEN3 we just couldn't keep up with demand on our original design so we went with billet so we could keep up.

Sounds good, before I purchase and set aside 4 hours for install (I'm slow when installing new things). Are any special tools required?

A puller n press r recommended but a hammer can be used instead lol full instructions come with it honestly not that bad

 

I know this is an older thread but has anyone have any current feed back on these carriers ?

 

I pulled my driveline and had it re-phased, balanced and put in the Sandcraft bearing....I now have zero vibration/shaft noise when in AWD. The bearing is top quality and I was on the fence about getting it but honestly removing the driveline was a pain and I did not want to do it twice.

 

I installed the carrier bearing it was about 30% better than stock, still have vibration.

 

On my 2015 XP1K, I wouldn't describe my noise as a "Vibration", it doesn't really vibrate its just noisy. It is more like chatter or rocks in a tin can type of noise at 20 to 30 MPH. So does this new carrier bearing correct this???

 

I got rid of that marbles in can sound by having my front drive shaft yokes phased.

 

I have a Sandcraft carrier bearing with hardly any time on it that I'd like to sell. Make me an offer.
