make sure the fluid is good in the dif. Check to make sure there is power going to the dif.

x2, drain the diff and see if chunks come out. I'm guessing if you just replaced both axles that your cage is exploded.

I believe the problem is clearly circled and starred on the front of the machine...lol! Seriously though, I would love to help but I don't know too much about the Polaris AWD system. Doesn't it use a center differential? Could be the culprit..

That's coming from a yamaha guy!
Guessing you dropped your front diff out. Quadboy55 wrecked one out of his XP to

I'm not a Yamaha guy, I'm a "ride what's reliable" guy. To be honest I've been working up in Fort Nelson the last two weeks and I've been dumbfounded by the capabilities of my friends Ranger 400. I figured the thing wouldn't have enough balls to get out of it's own way but it's so damn light he can crawl through skeg that has our rhinos sinking out of sight. There's more to mudding than horsepower I've found...

f this problem started right after the new axles and front diff were installed, I would hazard a guess that your mechanic forgot to hook up some wiring.
