2011-16 Wildcat 1000X common starter issue check, SLD (Spike Load Dampener) mention in description

- Опубліковано 26 сер 2024
- So, managed to break what I believe is my SLD (spike load dampener, which is designed to absorb some of the power and stress going in to the rear differential. Bit of a stupid design, if you ask me. More on that later.) and starter gear in one day.
This video is mainly to help you check it and to change your idler gear, if necessary(gear connecting to starter).
Tools you need are pretty basic...
- drain pan
- ratchet
- extension
- 19mm socket for drain plug
- T30 Torx for stator/engine cover
- Wobbler/universal adapter
- Maybe flat screwdriver for loosening the cover(be careful not to mess up the gasket)
The exhaust will be in the way to remove the cover fully, but you should be able to get it off and twist it far enough.
1. Drain the oil
2. Remove cover bolts
3. Carefully pull the cover off
4. Check your gears, and be careful not to drop/lose any. Some might stay in the cover
5. Reverse steps
About the rear differential...
I thought I blew the differential, but its likely the SLD. They're known to fail and cause this issue. You can test if it's in your rear differential easily. If it goes through all the gears fine, and its gear oil that came out, and it pulls fine with the front tires in 4wd, but not well with the rears in 2wd, it's gotta be in the rear differential.
You can delete SLD, or replace it. I'm going to delete. Google Wildcat SLD delete.
As always, if you have any questions, feel free to ask
May God bless you...
The kit comes with both the starter and gear. The updated starter has a course gear so it has to have a different driven gear to mate with.
You also need to change the one way Bearing that’s what takes out the gear
I dealing with this now broke my case side boss so taking to my shop to get new one welded in and a reinforcement plate welded in also but you said one way is what’s caused this issue I understand and you would think that’s the culprit but I sat there spinning one way thousand times it’s working as it should so how’s it allowing this to happen
You got the link for the upgraded gear/starter kit?
I do not, but Country Cat just emailed they're back in stock. But reinforce your cases. If you don't, you're better off getting the original one. Not worth breaking a case, in my opinion
The new starter kit is what breaks things fyi
So I've heard
@@motorman9 yep experience talking broke my stator cover boss first now I got plates welded in to fix that now pulling engine out to have plate welded on other side what a shit show thanks artic cat y’all really shit heads for not correct main issue
