| Re: snapping cv axels what breaks them almost every time on my machine (400 Outlander) is when I have the steering cranked to one side while stuck and giving it throttle. Gorilla doesn't make aftermarket CV's for mine, I've already spent over $1K replacing 4 of them. I just winch it out now instead of tryin' to be a hero, cheaper that way.....

| Re: snapping cv axels Welcome to the site.... Check out Royal distributors. They have a site and carry alot of aftermarket parts and accesories, another one is Motovan. Motovan will ship to dealerships closest to you. R.D. will ship to your door. Do you have a lift kit on your cat?

 I know for Grizzly 660's you could get 5 axles for that price. Maybe get some more quotes from different dealers.
