RH. 56 Report post Posted May 9, 2014 Got the call today that my quad will cost 1000 for all of the repairs. Worst phone call ever, was expecting about 400 but instead i found out one simple mistake made by me and other people working on my quad last year made a 700$ dent in my bank. anyone else have any stories on theyre quad costing way more then expected?

RH. 56 Report post Posted May 10, 2014 When changing the bearings we put bearing grease instead of this special magnetic oil stuff that controls the 4x4 on my quad which messed up both of my front struts and everything on the inside of them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lyle Reiner 174 Report post Posted May 10, 2014 Magnetic oil? In your wheel hubs that destroyed your struts? As in your suspension struts? Uhm something sounds fishy Quote Prostaff For Lowrance Canada Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pro fisherman-Stud Muffin 420 Report post Posted May 11, 2014 Lyle. they have electric locking hubs. And they are magnetic . So fluid can't be conductive. If it is plates magnetize over time and need to be replaced. Or something like that. A scrambler I fixed had same issue Quote 2016 Dog Lake Open Champion.

RH. 56 Report post Posted May 11, 2014 Ryan is correct. The bearings were put in very wrong so my struts were basically destroyed. Thankfully they had used parts as it would have costed me more then double to repair it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
