Secondary clutch disassemble help!

[VBosch02]

Anyone have any advice on how to remove the secondary clutch spring without causing personal injury? I looked online and found that EPI has a tool to assist in the removal but I don’t feel like spending $90 on the tool. Has anyone removed the spring without this tool? What suggestions might you have? Thanks for any help or advice. By the way this is a stock secondary clutch from a 2011 rzr s

Have not done the rzr yet but it is similar to others. That spring is under a LOT of pressure - you might be able to get it off with out injuring yourself without the tool, but tool is needed to re-assemble. $90 is less than my copay at the hospital when that cover comes off... You can make one out of threaded rod, a few nuts and some metal scrap. Take a look at the ones that are for sale and duplicate.

Yep, that spring has enough power behind it to make you sorry if you do it wrong man. If you can properly improvise a tool then spend the cash. You can use it again or hock it for a loss. My AC dealer before I moved was an awesome guy and would let me use special tools after hours. Option?

This might help you a little bit. This is how we do our rhinos thanks to James. You don't want to get hit in the balls while taking the secondary off.

JBS has a vid on youtube. I did it on my rhino last week just use stock wheel ontop of washer kneel down and press on wheel to compress spring the impact the nut off. I put it on the same way. They say make sure u get 2 full rotations on the nut befor u torque it dawn [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YyppwPyNp8&feature=youtube_gdata_player"]How to change a secondary spring without the tool - YouTube[/ame]
