With your 4x4 pin, the problem is more then likely in the cable going from th front to the rear. The stock cable will rust and eventually starting hanging up. You will need to replace it.

I have same thing happening with my front 4x4 and throttle cable as well. I used wax lubricant for quick fix but new cables are recommended

I learned my lesson its gonna be the cable after I had my rear diff rebuilt the pin didnt slide as it should. I went back and forth with this looked at the entire cable there was a rust spot on it were the cable had worn down and a kink in the cable it would kinda pull but not relax go back to 2wd, I got a new cable from JMC works better than ever if you do replace your cable make sure there are no harsh bends in it that will bind it up to. Just went threw this new cable is 15$ jmc

So I took a look at my swing arm shock mount its all the way at the edge top side of the swing arm close to the tire I guess I could move it back but idk I found this cool stuff today at lows to close up behind the dash it's PVC paper that's what they call it and I cleaned surface and use 2 sided tape and gorilla tape cost 20$ and if it tears I got plenty more

Once I get some more spare cash, I'll be going the Lenny way, adding a mount with three holes, moving the diff lower, adding a 1/2 plate on the bottom (cus I beat the shit out of my 3/16), and. well. that's it. for now.

As for being disheartened Charlie, I've played on some other machines back home, and I prefer the joyner.

Try to twist back my left swing arm. Got it with in 1 degree, try for the last bit and had the bar that I was using dent the upper and lower tubing. I thought about repairing it, but went with buying two new swing arms. I got a good price from Silver Bullet. Frankie Got them to me in 4 Days after payment. Going to box the new ones.

Also Lenny you were right on the 4x4 cable, was bad replaced the 2 front works great.

This is good to know I've added a back seat, meaning another 300# to the vehicle. Although I don't do anything too crazy, the terrain is very rough here. I'll be boxing mine in as soon as possible, and adding longer bolts too

Just curious here: Are swingarms twisted on machines with bigger tires, or are they twisted with stock tires too? Careful on answering - because if it's only on bigger tires, then the arms should be boxed before throwing bigger tires on. Otherwise, nothing much to worry about if you're running stock.

well i have checked my swing arms and I dont really see a twist, on my 09 the rear shock mount on the swingarm is as close to the outside as it can be and close to the tire front to back I also have only 800 miles i think on my trooper and lowers speeds than what you guuys travel at but the next time its outta the garage I wil take a better look

I have a 2009 with 1200 miles on it, I thought that my tires were leaning a little in on top at 800 miles, but thought it would be ok. I do run my hard and fast. After a trip to Gordan Wells and a few hard runs a Test Hill I Twisted them a little more. It would be a good Idea to box in them to help from twisting them.

Good Luck Glenn

      spits fuel from breather hose into the air cleaner and then down into carb.  What’s causing this ??

      I have a Coleman UTV 400 and looking for something to store it in.  Preferably something vinyl or plastic with its own base that can stand alone outside and house the UTV.  I think the dimensions of the UT400 are around 106" long 52" wide and 74" tall. 
      What should I consider that won't break the bank?

      the regen braking on my e1 has stopped working unless (for eg) I am going down a hill in low and it's slowing things down to stick to the 10kph limit. when I drive and take my foot off the accelerator it's not initiating the regen to slow things down and instead just coasts at whatever speed it is at, or speeds up as the regen is not limiting it. the brake lights work, so it's probably not a fault with the sensor on the brake pedal
       
      hoping someone else might be able to provide some suggestions on things to check, as the mob that I bought it off seem to have gone silent on me

      I bought a used 2021 Axis 500 last April.  Low mileage and got it for considerably less than what they go for new.
      The first thing I did was change the oil/fluids and also put a new drive belt on it.  The only other thing I did to it was add a rear vinyl window that zips open and rolls up to keep the weather off.
      I used it on my 52 acre property to check trail cameras, service the food plots, haul fertilizer, seed etc etc. It's has a good size bed and is not too big or small.  It has worked well as a utility vehicle. 
      Other than using on the trails working around the property I haven't used it much off road...at least until last weekend when I went on 74 mile group ride around the county. In my state it's legal to ride on any road that's not a state or federal highway. The group started in town, rode about 30 miles on back roads to the state ORV trail system. Then did about 20 miles on the trails and then headed back via back roads to town.   
      It had rained for 2 days straight prior, so the trails were one mud hole after another.  It was very challenging.
      The good...
      -It worked fine, never had any kind of issue with it since I bought it.
      -It kept up with more expensive machines on the trails. I was the only one with a CCC (Cheap Chinese Crap) machine.
      -Fairly comfortable to drive.
      -The roof, windshield and rear window kept most of the rain off when it started raining in the afternoon.
      -Okay, I cheated. I peeled off the AXIS 500 stickers on each side. Everybody in the group assumed I had a Rhino. They didn't ask, I didn't tell.
      The not so good...
      -The horsepower rating on the 500-cc engine is 24 hp but it seemed underpowered. While I could go about 35 mph with the pedal to the metal on pavement and hard packed dirt roads the best I could do on loose packed roads was 27 mph. I had trouble keeping up with the others in the group.  It also bogs down on inclines in high gear.  On the other hand, in low gear and 4wd I didn't have any problems going through mud or sand or up hills.
      -It is LOUD! Had to wear shooting earmuffs to keep my ears from ringing while riding. Going to have to address that.
      Overall Impression...
      I was impressed with it on the trails, and it is a good utility vehicle for working around the property. Considering what I paid for it I am very happy with its performance.

      We recently purchased the Axis x550. Fueled it with 93 fuel and drove one time around the farm and the 02 fault error appeared. Any ideas?
