Polaris RZR XP 1000 Race Rack & Pinion (Short Pinion)
UTV parts store near me,After running with a "stock" rack and pinion at our XP Turbo store with 32" tires, we just didn't see a reason to change We didn't have any excessive wear or rattling even after 1,500 miles of running on the rack. But then as we rode our next ride, BOOM, farm pro raider utv parts, utv parts sale. , we lost all steering and ended up After a post-race inspection, we discovered that the factory rack had broken in half in the center of the rack's splined gear, allowing. one half pulls on the right side and the other half pulls on the left side of the rack body.
No problem, where to buy Massimo UTV Parts, we thought, store of ATV UTV parts, just order an aftermarket replacement from anyone and it must be better, no, so fast, the replacementsAftermarket gears used rack gears that were just 0.085 inch thicker in the same location as our rack. had broken in two. Additionally, these brackets extended the width of the tie rod pivots by up to half an inch. This is really bad. When you change the width of these pivot joints, you are adding a bump direction to your front end geometry. This means that as the suspension moves up and down, the "toe setting" changes a bit to toe in, toe in, or both. This gives you unpleasant feedback in the steering wheel when you hit rocks or whoops, which takes a toll on your arms and hands, sure, but the real damage is to your front seals, utv parts for sale near me, bushings, ball joints and bearings. The lifespan of these parts is seriously reduced if your car has dents. Another major disadvantage of the Bump Steer is that the carre constantly trying to "hunt" for a direction to go. As the tires change point, the direction of your car also changes. Every time you hit a bump, scream or jump and hold the steering wheel straight, the car will seek direction by pulling left or right alone. This feeling is unnerving in a gaming car, but downright dangerous in any racing car. So our search continued for another rack and we found the only ticket rack on the market. We bought it and loved the larger fortress pieces, square rack gear and custom tie rods, but when we measured the width of the tie rod pivot points we found that they were 1 1/ 2 inches too wide! Would that create more than 3 inches of steering hump? Wow, I can't run that. Having no other choice of media to purchase, we wereforced to make our own Race support and here is a list of the items we put in our Race support that you won't find in any other support!
1 . 7075 aluminum construction. This high quality aluminum is almost as strong as carbon steel and costs 3 times more than the more common 6000 series aluminum.
2. Hard anodized plating. This hardened surface not only prevents wear in the harshest environments, but also extends the internal life of the rack.
3. Lubrication of dispersed grease passages. Our UNIQUE lubricator supplies 6 different locations in the rack through a network of internal passages. Proper lubrication is the key to rack life. Some of the internal power passages are the pinion, rack on all four sides, and vertical stress load points where the rack experiences the most potential wear. GThanks to tight internal tolerances, you will only need to grease our rack with two pumps of a grease gun every 1,000 miles of racing during your routine preparation.
4. Huge 1" x 1" square rack gear. This massive gear is twice as thick as the original round gear at its weak point at the base of the tooth. The size of this gear prevents bending and breakage, but the material used is also 125% stronger than the original material. Another important thing about a square rack gear is that it prevents twisting. The stock round gear has a tendency to twist in the rack body as the tie rods force it up and down. This twist jams the rack in the pinion tooth. This acts like a log splitter when it forces the sharp pinion tooth into the tooth base of the rack gear and creates the rack gear problems."broken" enamel racks for which the original racks are known. With our square rack gear, there is no twisting force to worry about and thus removing all pinion forces from the rack gear.
5. Pre-treated rack gear. Most racks use a soft material for the rack gear so that the teeth can be easily machined into it. After the machine process, the gear is heat treated to increase its strength. Heat treatment deforms the gear by up to 20 thousandths of an inch. In terms of machine tolerance, it's a huge amount, so they try to bend it or straighten it again, but you can't straighten it to a limited extent and there are often waves in the gearing from one end to the other. This means you need to increase the clearances in the body to allow the equipment to move inside the rack. This should not have happened to usWe liked everything, so we took a different route. We started with perfectly straight pre-cured material and cut our gear teeth into it. This is a very expensive process because the tooling wears out very quickly and the machine time is 5 times longer but the end result is a perfectly straight gear with less effort.one thousandth of an inch flow from one end to the other! This tolerance allows us to tighten the rack body and keep any play (which contributes to wear) in the rack to ZERO tolerance!
6. Patented gear tooth design. In choosing a tooth model, we based ourselves on the industry standards that were initially available. Through exhaustive testing and the intentional use of weaker materials to find points of failure, we found that the base of the standard tooth design was the weakest point and prone to breakage. We looked for oneter stronger tooth model, but we couldn't find anything, so we decided to make our own! Thousands of dollars in custom tooling later, we now have a patent-pending tooth design that has TWICE the base gear thickness as a standard system does.
7. Heat treated sprocket. Our sprocket starts as a solid piece of Chromoly 4140 material. After machining our custom tooth pattern, we heat treat the sprocket to a 60 Rockwell. It's actually harder than a carbon steel drill bit for superior strength and longevity!
8. Pinion bearings. The pinion bearing is often overlooked but not here. Normally the pinion bearing is pressed into the rack housing. This puts pressure on the bearing inward and can tighten the pinion and rack slide. We have created a new system in whichthe pinion bearing is not pressed in but barely slides into the rack body with only 1 mil of clearance. Next, our bearing retainer plate features a 10 mil step that preloads the bearing vertically into the housing so that it cannot move and cannot tighten the pinion and slow down the operation of the rack. Finally, there are many different bearings you can use here, starting at $5 all the way up to $30 very high tolerance bearings. We of course only use the $30 bearings.
9. Faster steering ratio. The factory rack features a two-turn locking system. This means that if you drive straight and place your hand on the steering wheel in the center and turn as much as you can to the left, UTV Parts Financing, 2008 Polaris UTV Parts, UTV Definition, the wheel will turn one full revolution before stop. A tocomplete turn in a straight line and centered and one complete turn to the right. This is two complete turns from one lock to the other. Our Race rack is a faster system. It spins the wheel just after 3/4 of a turn from the center. This means that our rack has a system of just over 1.5 turns. We tried using a higher gear, but found that the power from the electric power steering system was not enough to achieve a higher gear. The steering became heavy and cumbersome, we went back to a 1.5 turn system which is faster but still feels great.
10. High quality rod ends. Our Race Rack uses huge 5/8 rod ends for the tie rod pivots on the ends of the rack gear. We would never use inferior injected rod ends. We only use FK JMX10 rod ends-Highest quality T, Teflon lined. You'll be able to run a full Best in the Desert season on these rod tips without having to replace them.
11. "Taper Lock" locknuts. Our patented rod end lock nuts, called "Taper Lock," are an industry first. If you've gone shopping with rod ends and lock nuts on your spoke rods, tie rods, or control arms, you know that lock nuts always come loose. Most teams weld them in place to prevent this. We didn't want any welding on our rack gear, so we developed the "Taper Lock" system which uses a tapered machinist's tool to lock the jam nut and rod end in place. When you tighten the locknut, the male cone of the nut and the female cone of the rack gear fit together and lock like a tool collet in a milling machine or lathe. Thiss locknuts also serve as direction stops for moving the rack. Positive lockout and no release is the only way to finish races!
12. 4130 Chromoly screeds. Our tie rods that allow you to attach your tie rods to our rack are huge. They are made from solid 4130 Chromoly and use high tolerance 5/8 diameter shoulder bolts to connect to the ends of the 5/8 rod in the bracket. The WELD on Clevises has two machined stages designed to be inserted into your tie rod tube and welded. The tube diameters for the clevis are 1" for .120 wall tube and for 1 1/4 .095 wall tube. We also offer a 5/8 threaded clevis designed to be screwed into your replacement tie rods or in a kit. long stroke such as Assault, Cognito, Long Travel Industries and any other tie rod that uses a 5/8 rod end in its tie rod. Finally, we also offer.a longer clevis for Lone Star tie rods. Make sure you choose your screed carefully so you get it exactly. which best fits your tie rod system.
Please note that this steering rack is a racing part and as such does NOT carry a warranty. Additionally, improper installation and/or maintenance can cause premature wear.
NOTE: KEYS CANNOT BE INSTALLED INTO A RACING BRACKET, THE KEY MUST BE THREADED INTO STEERING RODS.
