The baby powder factory apparently.

Agreed. I've got buddies running XP's, XP Turbos, and Trail models. Waste gate actuators, throttle potentiometers, sloppy drivelines, premature bearing wear, and even a blown engine on the trail.

Your timing is good. I am in need of some more storage space for longer trips with my machine. Can you please use my email address located on my channel's home page and send me a message via email so we can chat further about your products.

@@ruyguy8888 OK, please check

I am actually genuinly curious of your throught process on this comment. At first I laughed, but then was very curious about how you came to your criticism on this 10 year old video of mine. I re-watched the video and other than having little to no camera skills 10 years ago, I explained my meathods of re-adjusting the valves on a Yamaha Grizzly 660. The video analytics from 10 years ago up till the last report I received on this from last week shows an overwhelmingly positive feedback from watchers. I've also gotten a few more shared tips and good feedback from peope in the comment section below. Would you care to elaborate on why you felt so negatively on this video and how i "get my act together" in a more timely manner?

I already replied to your comment on that video. As quoted "I kept this truck all the way into December of last year (2023) I had it for 14 years. Doing it all over again, i would have never lifted it and just put a set of 33"s on it. The ware and tear on the running gear, high cost of 35" tires and replacing brakes more often was not worth it in my opinion. I never had any transmission problems in the 48RE trans running the 35s."

@@ruyguy8888nice, yeah I'm unlifting this truck (6 inches hella wonky), and figured I would keep the tires smaller and the stock truck rake. Sounds like I now have a plan of what's best for the truck. Yeah 35s are hella expensive and I hate squat too

Thanks man! It's a very expensive hobby to be in but it allows me to get to some really remote spots. that not a lot of people get to see.

There are bypasses around the two worst sections of the trail now. I'll see if I can find it on my GPS however and send you a message on FB later on.

I took it into the dealer to have them done because i didn't have the puller tool you will need. They are held in there with a pin that is pressed in. If you search "Maverick X3 secondary roller puller" you will find all kinds of results.

Ya, it's actually really bad. I wouldn't want to try some spots on an ATV. I got overconfident on the way back down. Took the bank too high and slid on the side.

It was hard to pick up on camera, but there is a little sign with Daniel Snider's photo on it at the trail head.

i've got no front windshield on my X3 so it's not hot at all. I can feel a little bit of heat from the rad if im working it hard through the tight woods in the summer, but with no windows it just gets blown away and doesn't stick around. Nothing like the old original mavericks.

I left a rather shitty comment, so I edited it. Id rather not try to insult peope to make themselves look big on youtube like you have done. This video is my opinion. I knew what i was buying when i bought it. I don't buy anything blind. Im happy with the machine. You have good points. You just don't know how to speak properly to people and i can't help with that, sorry.

What did you end up doing? Just loosen the latch and reposition? or did you bend anything into place?

@@ruyguy8888 had to loosen the back bolts and pull the door forward as much as I could. Still wasn’t perfect after that. I used some automotive tape and just added some to the catch, just enough to add more holding force. Been quiet since I did that about 3 months ago. I’m sure I’ll have to replace the tape at some point. But $3.00 for a roll of tape is well worth the silence..

Just the standard Can-AM 45L cargo box i got at the dealer.

I've always been a Yamaha fanboy. I looked very hard at the YXZ's before this machine. I was a bit leary of the first gear still not being slow enough for tightly wooded trails and creeping over obsticals when needed so i purchased the X3. Still no regrets on it.. however it wasnt more than 4 months later the 2024 YXZ 6 spped transmissions came out lol. Oh well. I'm still having a lot of fun.

That's just a 20X24ft Single bay. It's usually crammed pretty good in there. I just pull everything out if I'm working on stuff.

thanks man! cant build it that big so i hope i have enough room

K

That's a clutch intake fan i added. It's tied into keyed ignition.

@@ruyguy8888 ahah! Makes sense. Thanks for the reply, great review btw!

Very well said.

I think the 3.21 V6's are rated for around 4800lbs depending on body configuration. Tung weight wise you would be OK, you might start to hunt for gears a lot through long uphill runs but otherwise I think you will be just fine with what you have. Travel trailers will always haul harder than something just on a flatdeck

@@ruyguy8888 I have the crew cab as well. 4350lbs is the max towing capacity. 9850lbs for total vehicle and trailer weight, with a curb weight of 5081lbs!

for my daily 45 min commute one way, i hand calculated it out to average 10 literes per hundred. (dash reads 10-11) . So thats about 20 to 24 mpg. exactly what Ram states

None at all.

I agree with you on blowing out the rubber seals with grease, however as noted by the dirty water being pushed out, the seals didnt do a very good job in the first place. Id rather push the water out, and even though the grease pushed out where the ingress happened, the first few turns of those needles will dispurse the grease inside evenly once it heats up. Plus tge grease used is fully synthetic and specifically made for high speed, high load bearing applications. I use this grease on my tractor implement bearings that spin all day long year after year You seem to think i filled the entire void in with grease when thats not what happened. I wouldnt recommend doing what i did for racing applications, but to prolong life of the general standard use wheel bearing. Hense why i said that grease is better than water. Again, not disagreeing with you but giving my reasons as to my desision.

@ruyguy8888 That's fair. I do a lot of general trail riding but also spend a lot of time on the track. I've gone through more bearings than I can count in the 2.5 years I've owned the car, to the point I thought about buying hess knuckles just to make it an easier swap. I finally decided to spend money on some Kryptonite bearings, hoping the lifetime warranty wasn't just a trick to get twice what the other guys are charging. Before I did anything, I contacted the manufacturer to get their service recommendations so I don't "void" my warranty and that's basically what they told me. Soon as you compromise that dust ring, it's only a matter of time before you need to replace them. Following thise directions I've had no issues with these bearings. Knock on wood.

@@ElJeFe556 I'll have to check out those Kryptonite bearings. I've not ever heard of them before so thanks for the tip. Yeah this car wont see a race track. My base warranty is long since gone already on this machine. Hoping to get a long life out of the X3.

When people complained about the previous year's clutch noises at 5000rpms that noise is what they where talking about.. only worse. The P-drive clutch is quieter plus Can-am added insulation to both the clutch cover and the intake tubes. That whine noise isn't really noticeable while driving. The ATVs are somewhat the same. ever listen to a XMR with its snorkels up front? Might as well have some cheese with that whine. These rollers where about $100 but well worth it for lifetime guarantee and a way stronger design.

Thank you. I tried to make it straight forward for the install. Fuel consumption is hard to say because terrain changes so much, stoppages out on the trails etc... However by far the MOST noticeable trait was the elimination of the very high heat coming from the turbo and catalytic converter area. The sound in person is much more pleasing to ear and doesn't sound as tinny as the stock muffler did. Performance wise, i find the turbo spools a little quicker so while i can't judge HP numbers without a dyno, the acceleration off the line feels better.

@@ruyguy8888 Thanks. Fuel consumption is a tougher one to pin point. The heat reduction would be nice, with both front and back windows the cabin gets quite warm in the summer.
