Thank you for the reply.I will ride it some more this weekend and really put some miles on it. When I put the kit on I only went up the road and back and parked it but like I said I'll put some miles on it this weekend and C how it performs. Thanks for the help bud, take care.

I would install out sport utility clutch kit 27-28'' tires. Depending on the year and if it has EBS would determine what exact kit you would need for your model.

@2trx400ex2 We would suggest going to the EPI economy clutch kit WE497030 which will change the wet clutch springs. This will give the machine more low end power and a faster throttle response. It will help to get the bigger tires moving. If you are always in the mud you can go to the competition stall kit which is WE497212 for the maximum low end through the clutches.

Our utility kit comes with 4-500rpm stall springs, roller weights, and a secondary spring. The competition stall kit comes with just wet clutch springs that stall out to about 8-1000rpm.

Great videos and illustrations, thank you! I'm getting ready to install a new kit on my 2004 Polaris 500 HO. I have 29" tires now and it cuts out when I'm in reverse, no power. Question: Is this a clutch issue that may be resolved when I change to the new clutch kit? Thanks again!

I would suggest our sport utility kit for 27-28'' tires. you will still keep your topend but gain bottom end response and better backshifting.

There is originally from Polaris silicone on the backside of the cover on the motor side and that may be leaking and not the cover seal that really is all I can think of if not wanting to use silicone or snorkels. You may want to use dialectic grease on all electrical connections to help with corrosion.

That kit will really help your belt grip and also at the same time better response and backshifting.

thanks, just pulled the clutch cover off and there is an oil pump assembly/passage ways behind the clutch are broken, but it looks like it can be replaced, but i cannot remove clutch it needs special tools.

I have a 2012 Grizzly 700. I am running 29.5 Outlaws. What kit do you recommend? I don't want to lose a whole lot of top end.

I've recently purchased a 2012 outlander EFI. It is new old stock. A leftover from last year. Never ridden. That being said, I purchased new tires. Same size as stock, more aggressive tread. Swamplites in 26x10x12's. Same measurements, twice as much tread. So far, she runs great. No slip. What should I be looking for, or listening for if I'm running into trouble? I've never owned a quad. I've been a dirtbike man for 40 years. Recent shoulder injuries have put me on four wheels instead of two.

I have a 2016 brute force 750 and am putting 29.5 inch swamplites on it. I mostly just do trail riding but occasionally hit some deep mud holes. I would say 50% of my riding is cruising. Which kit would be best for me to be able to trail ride most of the time but have to grip when i need it in a mudhole?

ok thanks. btw what about a rubber seal for the clutch cover instead of the foam one do they even make those

I would suggest going with our 27-28'' Sport Utility kit Should get you where you want to be but you will lose a bit off the top end with it.

I have an 850 xp Polaris. Factory except the 27" Zillas. I just do general trail riding but I am aggressive. In 3 months I have already replaced a belt that got burnt from slipping. Which clutch would you recommend.

i would pull everything apart on the clutches and give them a good look over for parts that are woren like flat rollers and woren out buschings in the primary and tack dirty grease in the primary.

What kind of clutch kit do I need for my 2012 can am outlander xmr I have fuel programmer on it looney tunes exhaust mr rpm heads I have 29.5 outlaw 2 tires on it all I do is mudd ride

Some times you will see the rpm spike up higher than usual. Also if the belt is worn it will be a little jerky on the engagement. If It dose start to com apart you might hear a slapping noise on the cover.

What would make a primary "snap" into disengagement with one spring, but not another spring. It moves effortlessly in and out when I have it taken apart, so nothing is sticking. The stronger spring is the one that does it. Weaker spring is smooth as butter

i got a 2006 Polaris sportsman 450 with 2 inch highlifter lift on 29.5 outlaw 2s what kind of clutch can i get to make them turn better

We have never tested for fuel economy when we are looking for performance. The fuel tank varies in size from year to model.

I would take a look at my sport utility 27-28'' tire clutch kit and check out a 2'' lift for it.

there is a special puller to get the clutch off. It is a friction fit on the shaft some people have been able to get it off with out a puller from what they have told me. But I would suggest a puller to not wreak anything.

I would go with my sport utility 27-28'' tire kit. I would give you the specific kit number but I don't know the year of your machine.

We also have kits that will work better for the mountain rider as well. The backshifting will be much better for doing any type of climbing.

Hey what's the differents between getting the kit or the one primary spring by epi? Thanks

got a 2014 rzr800 running 29.5 I ride 50% trail hills rocks and 50% mud wanna get more low end power don't care if I lose any top end speed like my power down low what kit do you suggest?

just curious i have a 99 polaris magnum 500 AWD and i was wondering what mods can i do to it so i dont have to worry about water getting into the cover i need to seal it up without using things like silicone maybe a rubber seal instead of the foam one also i dont want to do a snorkel on it as i dont usually get in that deep of water but sometimes it gets into the cover from the bottom side

Awesome video! May I suggest a microphone to get rid of the echo?! I have a Polaris Sportsman 700 and am looking into one of your clutch kits. Someone recently replaced the clutch with a factory type, however there is a delay before engagement. Which kit would you suggest?

I would call our tech line at 218-829-6036. It will depend on tire size, elevation and type of riding your doing. That way we can get the the correct kit for your individual type of rinding.

Most Yamaha's, Arctic Cat and Suzikis and Kymcos use a wet clutch system. You will have three clutches, the main two the belt runs through and then internal wet clutch. The little springs would go into your wet clutch. Also note that on many of our clutch kits we use a generic picture and parts may vary by model and year. IF you call us with your exact model we can tell you for sure what is in your kit. Thanks

I have a 06 wolverine 450 with Mudlite´s 25 " I want to improve engine response, then my question is, I can buy sport-utility kit for 27-28 tires?. Or is it better to buy for the stock tires?

yes heat dose radiate into the tank. Location of the tank varies by model and year.

You can run with our Sport Utility Kit for 27-28" Tires. Top end should be the same as what you have now with better low end and mid range power, faster backshift and throttle response, and grip the belt better. You could also use our Mudder Kit which will give you even more low end power and torque but you will give up some top end. The best over all kit for 27-28" tires would be the Sport Utility kit.

MrCameronArredondo On the Honda we only change the wet clutch springs. they are stiffer then the stock spring and raise your engagement 300-500 rpms which will help make up for the power loss of the bigger tires and will make it more responsive when you are on and off the gas. If you have the engine apart it is the perfect time to install the clutch kit. Part number for the kit is WE497010. Let us know if you have any other questions.

hey what clutch kit should i run in my brute force 650i? im running 28" mega mayhems and i ride trail and mud so im looking at something that will work good in both? thanks

Have an 08 big bear 400 5 speed and I put 30" silverbacks on it and it snt pull them in mud in 4x4 I noticed yall don't have a mudder kit for the big bear 400 even though it is on the mudder picture. But anyways how well would the competition stall kit do on it?

The 500 should have a reverse over ride button on the handle bars that should correct that and will allow the motor to turn more RPM. With that large of a tire i would suggest a Clutch kit for your machine depending on what kind of riding you will be doing.

Great set of videos

What's the difference in your Utility clutch kit and the Competition stall clutch kit? Interested for my 98 Grizzly 600

Would I need a Competition stall clutch kit for my primary, as well as a heavy duty clutch kit? I will be mudding a lot and pulling people out of mud as need be. I will also be just riding this normally outside of mud pits. Any idea how much your clutch kit would be? How is your kit compared to say EBC? Thank you!!!!

Honda uses a different clutch then the other brands so our clutch kit is a little different. The economy kit raises the engagement 300-500 higher then stock and the competition stall kit raises the engagement 700-1000 rpms over stock. Both of these kits only change the wet clutch springs. If you go to the performance upgrade you will also get new friction plates for the other clutch on the machine. Any of the kits will give you added performance over the stock clutching and be a big help when riding with the larger tires. You get better low end and midrange power and faster response out of the clutch. Hope that helps, let us know if you have any other questions.

Should take a shop a little over an hour to install. If you are installing for the first time might take 2-3 hours. Take a little extra time and clean the clutch good.

I have a 2008 King Quad 750axi. I am not sure what size the original tires were. I use 27 in tires and do feel like it just needs something. At what point would putting lower gears in vs a clutch kit make a difference? I use it strictly for Elk Hunting in the Rockies with steep hills and carrying heavy loads up and down the steep hills. Should I get something else with a clutch kit or would just the clutch kit do what I am looking for? (I think of lower gears when I think of climbing hills in my Jeep) Peace, Mo

In most cases the clutch kit will help you out a lot and its hard to find lower gears for a lot of the machines other then some of the Polaris. When they use lower gears on wheelers they change the gears in the transmission, not in the front and rear differentials like you do on trucks. The Sport Utility kit for the 27-28" tires will give you better low end and midrange power, faster backshift and throttle response and will grip the belt better then stock.

There is no break in period for the clutch kit its self, but if you installed a new belt you will want to break in the belt for 20-25 miles. Yes that higher engagement is normal on that machine. Should be nice and smooth just higher. If it seems higher and seems like it is slipping you might have a roller out of place.

in most cases with 30" tires we would have you use the Mudder clutch kit which is designed for 28" and larger tires. If you are doing a lot of high speed road riding and using the top end then we would have you use the Sport Utility kit for 27-28" tires. Both kits are the same price and same amount of parts, they are just tuned a little different.

@2trx400ex2 The economy clutch kit is the best all around for most people part #WE497030. The competition stall kit (WE497212) will have even a higher engagement for more low end power.

We have two kits for your machine. Most people use the Economy Kit part number WE497010 which will give you more bottom end and mid range power to help turn the bigger tires. The clutch engagement is 300-500 over stock. If you want the all out most bottom end power and response then you would want to go the competition Stall Kit part number WE497211 which is 700-1000 higher then stock. Both kits really help out to get the tires moving and spinning and keep them moving with more power. You also notice a big difference in reverse when you are trying to back up in mud. Hope that helps, let us know if you have any other questions.

Yes a clutch kit will help make up for the power loss of installing the bigger tires. You will get better low end and midrange power, faster backshift and throttle response and it will grip your belt better then stock. You can decide between two kits with your 28" tires. You can go with the Sport Utility Kit for 27-28" tires or the Mudder kit. Both kits will do as described above, the Sport Utility kit is our best all around set up if you are doing a little bit of everything with it and the Mudder kit is more focused on the getting more lower end to help turn the bigger tires even better, but you will give up a little top end mph for it. Hope that helps.
