Thanks for the compliments guys. I have a feeling this old TXL has been neglected the past few years, maybe even the past decade, so I am trying to get a few things back up to snuff. I hope someday it looks as nice as some of these I have seen on here.
I am fortunate to have gathered experience working on old cars, as that is all I could afford when I was younger. We all know how those things can be a humbling experience, especially when you have to walk to the nearest town. And the funny thing is, I still play with them and would rather have one 30 years old than a brand new one. So with all my toys, I try to fix the little things before they become big things. This old TXL is no exception.
I have been doing what I can inside, and working on the sled when the weather has been warm enough. The trailer is like a ice box inside....... Most of the stuff lately has been remove, repair, and replace. It keeps me moving forward, and also gives me a chance to find out what I need to address down the road.....
I didnt know what was bouncing around in the primary clutch, but you could here something in there when you rolled it over. That mouse nest could have affected the clutch engagement, so at least that issue is off the table.
Kelly, here are a few pictures for you, I do think you can get something similar at a hardware store even a bronze bushing if you prefer. They were $5.00 a piece, 4 required. Polaris Part #3573908
