Oil Leak

[deerman2701]

Is there a gasket or something behind the sprocket? There seems to be a little bit of oil leaking from behind the front sprocket on the motor. Is there a gasket behind that i can replace?

Yupp, I had to replace mine a while back as well. Tip the quad on its side so you don't have to drain the oil when you make the change.

Oil Seal - Part # 1277193 (358562-001)

cool so all i have to do is bend the metal, take out the nut, remove the sprocket, and the seal should be right behind that?

Yupp, and those seals are spring re-enforces, so your really gunna have to dig at it to get it out, but it will some out, and the new one will just press back into that spot.

make sure you get a new crush washer or at least reuse your old one.. or you will lose your nut!!
