I've had my all balls tie rod ends in for a few rides now. Still nice and tight. They are actually tighter the the factory ones were when brand new.

I would keep an eye on then, tried them on my 850 and had one separate luckily I wasn't going fast when it happened.

I keep checking them and haven't had an issue yet. I see they are owned by Moose racing now. Not sure if it has always been them or not.

I put all balls tie rods in my brute. Seemed to last good. Sold the quad with them on so can't really say how long they lasted.

Through this last 2 week's I've
- Fixed a broken band clamp on the carb boot
- rejet the carb using my innovate motorsports afr meter to help the process
- Oil/filter change - and decided to touch the banjo fitting bolt cuz i thought it might be seeping oil (read results below)

Went Riding Sat made it about 20 min and found new problems

- fixed a major oil leak on a banjo fitting
- found a torn boot on Front drive shaft - pulled it cleaned it , RPM in whitecourt rebooted it for me (lots of praise to them) usually its just buy new one with yammy.
- Removed rear swaybar going to try it without see if its better in tight bush riding.
- re-oiled my K&N while i had the chance.
- Put moose locking handlebar grips on the bike, man those are nice grips.

other than that guess we will see after this weekend hopefully nothing for a while.

Lol, not asking for much, is he? Just make sure it's worth your while. I'd probably offer to wash, check, and lube for $250 (not including materials) per machine for a good friend if I had the time - he'd be getting a pretty smoke'n deal and you make $1000 for a solid day's work. It would probably take at least $500 per machine for me to do it for anyone else, just 'cause I wouldn't want to do it. Then go from there if the quads need any additional work.
