You should show how to change the differential seal in the front when it starts to leak

Wow. I am usually always disappointed with the production of the DIY videos. But your producer made you look like the absolute pros you are. You used your 6 mins well and I didn't have to fast forward through shots of you looking for a tool, elevating your machine or petting your dog.. Very tight.. thank you.

John is hands down the best!

Thank you. You have a new customer for life

Nice, Thanks John. xx

Awesome video

Thank you for this superb video. I’m servicing a 2016 Yamaha Kodiak 700 and the owners manual says the Final Gear oil type is Mobilfluid 424. I’ve researched this oil and it appears that this type of oil is the same as or near the same as hydraulic fluid. For the front differential the manual does specify SAE 80 API GL-4 Hypoid gear oil. I went to my local Yamaha shop where the ATV was purchased and bought the Yamaha lube 10W-40 oil and filter for the machine along with the 80 wt gear oil for the front differential. When I asked the parts guy for the Mobilfluid 424 oil for the Final gear change he looked at me puzzled and said he didn’t have it. Interesting too is that our 2016 Yamaha Viking side by side manual says use the 80 wt for both the front differential and the Final drive. I’m beginning to think the Mobilfluid 424 suggestion for the Kodiak 700 is a typographical error. Any insight that you can share regarding this matter? Thank you.

Just use 80w90 gear oil

Thanks, your videos are a huge help. Had no idea I’m supposed to do this with every motor oil change. Think it might be time to change my 20 year old diff fluid.

There are two drain plugs under my 2020 Kodiak EPS final drive. One thats under where the check bolt is located and another plug about 5 inches toward the front. You only drained one so can you tell me which one you removed to drain and what is the other one for? Thanks

Also, could you provide links to those particular tools you have?

Make sure to read your owners manual. On my 2020 xrt it states to torque the final gear oil drain plug to 17 ft pounds not the 7 stated in the video.

Just snug it up you’ll be fine

What kind of torque wrench you using?

Where did you get those glasses? Are they just safety glasses or do they have magnification in them?

How do you do this without a injector device, carefully with small amounts?

Do you use the same gear oil for both ???

Is it the same for a 2019 kodiak 700

hello I have 2019 is same oil for front n rear?

Does the Grizzly 700 not have a transfercase that needs a oil change as well?

Can you use water to flush out the old oil if its mega dirty or nah??

Amigo, preciso do manual de serviço desse modelo 700cc. Não encontrei no Brasil. Você poderia mim enviar por e-mail, caso tenha?

What grade and type of oil?

What kind of oil for engine

What torque wrench is that?

If the seals on your differential we're leaking would oil would be coming out around this seals .if you're getting milky colored water and the deaf breather lines that are breathing getting it too deep in the water.

Sometimes you may blow your seals and never see a drop of oil come out of them

Need a DAC3055 W-3 wheel bearing

So the first oil change on my new 2019 Grizzly 700 EPS is right around the corner. I assume break in oil is used in rear final gear, front diff, and engine oil. If that is so, I need to do all 3 in the first oil change too, correct?

Hi there, Hey I have a 2018 Ranger 900 that have a misfire, but it only has it when it goes up to 4500 RPM'S and up, if it's under those RPM's it runs fine I tried many things already, Spark plugs, wires, ignition coil, new belt, fresh fuel And it keeps throwing the code for misfire on the MAG cylinder and I reset it, and sometime it throws misfire code for the PTO cylinder, I checked the timing, the valves, and it keeps throwing the code for misfire. What do you recommend or suggest? Thank you

3,200 miles in a year ? Whoa... I must not ride a lot..I’ve only hit 1190 miles in 2.25 years...I’ve changed my oil three times and diff fluid twice. It’s not really expensive so why not? There’s nothing else to do on a new machine but tinker

My 2018 grizzly rear end drain plug allenkey nut is stripped, whats my best bet? Thanks in advance!!

In a 2016 Yamaha grizzly 700, can you use the same oil for front and rear differentials?

@brianpiersol9412

Yes, I too have a 2016 baby brother Kodiak 700 and I used $10/ bottle of Yamalube Friction Modified Plus Shaft Drive Oil 80W-90 for both front Diff and rear final drive. One bottle will do both. Calls for Mobilube 424 in my owners manual for the rear final drive. It took me a while to find documentation from Yamaha that the Yamalube is fine to use for the final drive as an OK fluid to use instead of the Mobilube 424. Hope this helps.
