hookem_9 Posted May 2, 2002 Share Posted May 2, 2002 Well, here's the rest of the story... I bought this wheeler at insurance auction. turns out Polaris bought 2 Rubicons for engine testing,they pulled out the eng/trans, put it on the testing bench, ran the motor @ 100 rpm below WOT w/ load until it blew-up. FYI, one motor made it 140 hours, the other made it about 134 hours before it blew up. I bought the chassis, I mean hey it's the entire wheeler minus the motor/trans. still got the nubbies on the tires. can't let that go to waste... Just need to find a damaged or totalled on for the rest of the parts. should be able to end up about $2,500 cheaper than new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 2, 2002 Share Posted July 2, 2002 Hey ya Papa Bear,I've got four bolts to put in my rear suspension on the xcr 600. Does that help you out any? I didn't think so...... I'll let you get back to the corn shucking. "Elmdale" stunk. No llamas and slow carts. How's the soffit going? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
