  1. check on ebay for the air filter element, you can still buy them new, but be warned, they are not cheap !. they are pretty hard to come by used, i had one, but used it on my last 450 build. even the air box itself is discontinued, so do not damage yours !. as for the drain screw, sand down the tip at the correct angle, then use a o-ring on the end of it like it should have. just checked ebay for air filter element, save your time, they are asking over retail price for used !..go buy a new one from rocky mountain atv, for $ 79.30 for brand new !, and free shipping.
  2. i can answer this...no..it will not work. why ?, the rims on the trx350D foreman are 11 inch rims, and also deep dished, i highly doubt the rims will clear the brake kit. now..you can go to 12 inch foreman rims ( 450 foreman ), and make it work. i converted my front brakes on my '89 trx350D foreman to high lifter disk brakes, but i had to make some special brackets to fit the brake kit on it. and i also used 12 inch rims for a 450 foreman both front and rear. i had to re-adjust the foot guards to make room for the 12 inch itp mudlites, was easy though.
  3. sxs are not talked about alot here, most here have atv's. sxs's are a whole diff world when it comes to tires.
  4. haha..i am about 5 min's away from that dealership, conway is not far from me at all. been there a few times for stuff.
  5. i try not to get into tire selection here on the forums, why ?..because everyone has their tire they like. myself..i run nothing but stock sizes for my toys, or builds ?. just a heads up: if you go to 14's ?, be ready to spend lots of cash keeping this atv rolling right !. large tires, rims..do damage to the drive line fast !. you have been warned !!. i run ITP at's mudlites on my 450, and it will go through anything i drive through, and i do not go in deep mud..or lakes !..lol.
  6. glad i could help :-). yes..please have it added here..it will help others in due time..oh..and stick around..you are in great hands here !.
  7. north little rock ??..i'm in north little rock !..lol. give me a holler one of these decades..we'll hook up before i die..rofl.
  8. from partzilla ?, thats odd ?!..they sell mostly oem honda parts. i wonder if they sent you the wrong c.d.i. ?..or..you ordered the wrong one ?. either way..glad you got it going !!..be sure to get those valves set !.
  9. have a look on this page --> trx520 service manual for sale | eBay , pick out the best one you like. MAKE SURE IT COVERS YOUR YEAR/MAKE/MODEL BEFORE YOU ORDER IT !.
  10. they call them caliper spacers because most rims have a curve right there at the lug area, without these spacers, the calipers would rub the rim right there. also, you must have a 12 inch rim in order to use this kit, because even with the caliper spacers, the calipers would grind on the rim if they are not 12 inch rims. don't ask me why high lifter calls them caliper spacers ?..they just do..lol.
  11. those spacers are not wheel spacers, ^^^..they are caliper spacers. your issue is your rim off-sets.
  12. final output shaft turns counterclockwise. what i do: i put a pair of vise grips on the final output shaft, another pair clamped onto the shifter shaft, i click up on shifting shaft while i am rotating the output shaft, you will hear it '' click '' as it goes into gear for 1st, then rinse and repeat for all other 4 gears. from 1st to reverse, you must have the reverse lever pulled in in order to down shift on the shifting shaft, as you are rotating the output shaft clockwise.
  13. chances are, not that i know of ?. this is a newer atv, most atvs in the manual section are older models, until some member buys a newer/later model, post info on it ?, it will not be in the manual section.
  14. congrats !..i hear lose valves ?, or lose cam chain ?..i would inspect/check/set valves. i do hear ticking.
  15. i'm not sure where you bought that '' so called brand new oem '' c.d.i. ?. but just for future reference ?, if you do not buy them from a honda dealership, such as rocky mountain atv, or partzilla ?..they will not be oem !. spec if it comes from amazon ?..amazon is 100% china fake junk !. if buying from ebay ?, you must make sure in the ad is say's oem ?, and even then..they will still lie to you !!. as for it running now ?, if the neutral light on dash was out ?, and you found the bad gear position switch, chances are, this was why you were not getting spark from the get go, you must have a neutral light on dash for it to fire spark plug, the c.d.i must know its in neutral in order to start..this is a safety feature honda builds into their atvs to keep you from starting them while in gear.
  16. i hate to be that guy, but...is the kill switch in the center position?. ok, you got a neutral light, this leaves the c.d.i. , stator, pick up coil, reg/rec, ignition switch, or spark plug/spark plug coil ?. re-check all your fuses across the fuse with a 12vdc test light while key is on, you should have voltage on both sides of fuses when probing the fuse on both sides.
  17. umm..no..they won't..cuz they are already dead !..lol.
  18. update: got a doe and button buck sat nov 11th opening day, then monday morning i dropped this 4 point from 100 yrds. came home today, i'm wore out. dropped off all my deer meat at hog's meat market to process. here is the 4 pointer i got monday morning. my blind is here by broken in !..lol.
  19. if you look at the top of that switch ^^ there is the letter N stamped on there. the long end of the small roll pin faces this letter N. ground the switch to the engine for a ground, make sure the roll pin's long end faces that letter N, you should get a neutral light on the dash when you turn the key on, that is..if your neutral light bulb is good on the dash ?. worst case, your shift drum on the end is snapped off, and not spinning the netrual switch when you shift t neutral. you can check this with a flat blade screw driver stabbed into the back end of the shift drum while you have the rear engine cover off. if you can spin that slot easily around ?, then yes...the end of the shift drum has snapped off. if this is the case ?, then this means you will have to split the engine in order to change out the shift drum.
  20. i second d&b electrical ^^^, i use them all the time..very good starters, very decent price and warranty.
  21. yikes !...lol. yeah..now yer gonna have to locate a couple drive shafts on top of a couple u-joints.
  22. if you remove the air box ?, this will give you plenty of room to get at the starter from the top, back end.
  23. if he can get a u-joint to spline both ends there at the swing arm..this would work.
  24. if you look closely...he's already got two drive shafts going to rear end as it is. most drive shafts stop right at the end of swing arm, he's got an extension tapped into the swing arm drive shaft.
