Hi John,

That sounds good, I was wondering how that would work out.

We figured out that if an outlander is laying at a 40* or more angle to the right then the diff wont engage because we think all the the oil is on one side of the diff.

I really wish they would offer a diff lock similar to Yamaha's. That allows me to pull off some feats that the other bikes cant

I see very little (if any) difference between the 06 and 07 versus the 08 diff lock up.

One of can am's factory riders on highlifter was installing a traxtor front diff servo in his OL, claimed lockup after 2-3 revolutions but also made for heavy turning on corners where no diff lock was needed.

It seems that we broke the transmission on the 08 Outlander 800 yesterday. Very few hours on that bike, 15 I think. No forward or reverse, just grinding.

Well that sux. What were you doing when it broke? I would like to know....i am getting ready to put an 800 can am engine and tranny into the rhino.

She was winching on a Rhino about 300 yards out in a marsh. One theory is that it may be the helix gear behind the secondary belt sheave. I'll let you know.

Was it in park while winching? I am going to get a new outlander, rob the engine and tranny and electronics and sell the rest. Any of your guys interested in the rolling chassis with 0 miles? Also will have a mint 660 rhino engine and tranny complete.

I suspect it was in low and slipped into high under power, the shifter alignment doesnt seem correct.

Canam rumor has them building a utv as an 09 model http://www.atvmagonline.com/output.cfm?id=1451161

I saw on a rhino forum where a guy is working on the same swap as you. http://www.highlifter.com/forum/m_2500689/tm.htm and here http://www.rhinoforums.net/showthread.php?t=8884

sounds like a fun project

Desert Dog offroad is who I am getting my brackets and stuff from. I am not going to reinvent the wheel. From what I hear....this guy has it figured out.

if you're stripping her down and sellin her for parts, buy mine! Save you a couple of grand! its for sale.. PM, no reasonable offer turned down..

I need a Outlander 800 Chassis! If you have one or your buying one contact me. Im looking for just the chassis you can have everything you need for your rino swap.
