Great stuff. Sorry I didn't see this a few days ago. Had the whole engine out for a rebuild. Just re-installed it on my 2009 800.

That would have been the perfect time to schedule a Pinion Nut dance. The project isn't too bad to do though, typically it takes 3 1/2 - 4 hours to complete. Send us a PM with your e-mail addy and we will send you the information we have for the project.

Thanks Les. Appreciate the help. I haven't done much reassembly beyond torqueing the mounts. Want to run it a few hours first. Pulled it a second time already because my stator ground wire fried due to a bad frame ground. Also changing the wire harness to chase a TPS fault.

Hi there Les, I got another member to the "Tight Nut Gang" last Thursday. He brought it to my shop, with a friend to help. I found out sometimes too much help is not good. I told them they had to keep track of where the bolts came out and had a cardboard box ready for them. The friend is one of those guys that takes things apart and throws them where ever. Short story, as I was replacing bolts on the right side I left them to figure out where the left side bolts went. I had to grin quietly as I heard much heated discussion as to why they had to take the long ones out AGAIN. Anyway we got all back together and it runs well. It is a 2009, the pinion nut may have had 100lbs of torque, but far from being tight yet. Had less than 4000 miles on it.
Thanks for the help.

Good job, I think you and I are a lot alike, I would have done the exact thing. We are getting those loose nuts out oft he woods one at a time. We have tools in New York and Minnesota right now taking care of a couple.
Have a Blessed Day

I'm a rip and tear bolt tosser....been that way for years. You can actually get technique at it over time. I pull it all and stuff into a coffee can or whatever, clean all the bolts and then lay them out on a rag. I put all the same stuff in stacks together. Then its just a proper depth and size game. Gets a little tougher with stuff thats half metric, half American but it takes me so much longer to keep track of everything then to just stack it. The only thing I really keep track of now is stuff that wears into each other like lifters, pushrods, rockers, connecting rods...those kind of parts.

Les is the man!!!

Rhino89523:
Rip and tear is fun some times, especially on something you work on all the time. The RZR diff and trans bolts I made a jig to put them, different years have different length so I like to keep them straight. Some hole are blind so a bolt close but just a bit long can punch a hole in the trans case.
What ever works and no bolts or nuts left over is all good.
