I took my machine in for service, and was told my secondary was chewed up and should be replaced. They recommended going to the round rollers in the new clutch. I had no idea what that meant, but took their recommendation, and said to go for it. I looked up this video to understand what they were talking about. Thanks.
depends on your model and year. If you look on our EPIperformance youtube or just click on it above by the video we show how to install a clutch kit on a lot of different models. This will show you have to remove and install the spring and helix.
I have a spot in one of my rollers that it is hard to spin over. I want to replace the roller. It is on a 2014 Ranger XP900 LE EPS. Can I just punch them out or do I have to take everything apart first? Do I have to take the back plate off (one with the loctite torx heads)? Thanks.
if your clutch had the helix and the four torx bolts you will have to remove the spring and helix and then remove the pins just like we do in the video. When you put it back together us blue loctite on the four torx head bolts.
It could. In most cases though you will have less slippage in low gear compared to high because the lower gear ratio is easier on the clutch system. But if you clutch is worn really bad, in low gear your belt will travel through the shift faster and might get to the worn spot in the clutch quicker.
if your replacing the square slider with the round roller it will react quicker with less drag. The square sliders will also wear out your clutch before the roller wears out, then you will need to replace the entire clutch. It will keep your clutch from binding. The new replacement rollers will hold up better then the OE rollers from wear and tear.
@@badas95Z Yes we sell upgraded replacement rollers for most of the Polaris and Can Am models. You can find them on our website at epiperformance.com On some models we also offer a replacement secondary clutch.
We sell the buttons for your machine. The part number is WE213221 , you can search that number on our website at www.epiperformance.com and it will show a pic of them. Its a three pack of the buttons and the screws that hold them in place for $14.99. Hope that helps.
you are correct, we skipped to the roller replacement. On the 2016 and newer models that have the square sliders helix is under spring tension. Use a marker to make a alignment mark on the clutch and on the helix so you can assemble them back together correctly. You will need to use a compression tool to hold put a little pressure on the helix, then remove the four torx bolt (its best to carefully heat them a little because there is blue Loctite on them) and then slowly and carefully let the helix and the spring out of the clutch.

Glad we could help!
Pounding that pin out sounded like the Law and Order intro. 🤣
Does this procedure apply to a 2019 Polaris General 1000 or just older models?
Yes that would be the same as the video
My question is. How do i compress the spring back into the clutch
depends on your model and year. If you look on our EPIperformance youtube or just click on it above by the video we show how to install a clutch kit on a lot of different models. This will show you have to remove and install the spring and helix.

Could wore out rollers make my belt slip in low gear? In high it seems to be fine
It could. In most cases though you will have less slippage in low gear compared to high because the lower gear ratio is easier on the clutch system. But if you clutch is worn really bad, in low gear your belt will travel through the shift faster and might get to the worn spot in the clutch quicker.
Do I have to take the back cover off to change them?
you wont be able to take the back clutch sheave apart until the pins and rollers have been removed. You will need to remove the helix and spring.
What are the benefits of upgrading the secondary
if your replacing the square slider with the round roller it will react quicker with less drag. The square sliders will also wear out your clutch before the roller wears out, then you will need to replace the entire clutch. It will keep your clutch from binding. The new replacement rollers will hold up better then the OE rollers from wear and tear.
@@EPIperformance I already have your mudder clutch. Do you sell the parts to upgrade the secondary?

You didnt mention that the helix has to be removed
you are correct, we skipped to the roller replacement. On the 2016 and newer models that have the square sliders helix is under spring tension.

Put it together wrong, pins are upside down
