I was just heading out for a quick trip to grab firewood but one trail led to the next and I forgot how much I love winter riding…
HERE’s ANAZON LINKS TO THE PARTS I USE. Check out my other side by side UTV videos for more links.
***2” Lift kit- amzn.to/3GLUvPQ
** High Performance Battery- so far this battery has been great. After sitting for a week in very cold Canadian winter temperatures it never reads lower than 12.7 volts. amzn.to/3kmMQ3a
**Pivot works rear wheel bearing kit- Comes with all the bearings and seals you need to do both sides. I’ve tried all bearing brands I like these the best as they hold up and stay tight. amzn.to/3WiuwVY
*Starter- this starter is the DB electric brand and it works great!
It turns my engine over much faster than the original. I put silicone around the seams to keep water out and 3 years later it’s still working great. amzn.to/3yQkh1s
*Ball Joints- these are the All Balls brand and normally in the past I did not have good luck with these. It looks like they upgraded the boots and other parts of them now and so far they are still nice and tight. Make sure you freeze them for 24hrs the heat the knuckle up and they will slide right in no hammering needed and best chance of them lasting a long time-amzn.to/3v78Wcf
*Front Wheel Bearing kit- this is the Pivot Works brand and I’ve tried all brands of bearings and have great luck with these vs other ones.
One pack will do both front wheels and they come with excellent oem quality wheel seals as well. No complaints and make sure to freeze the bearings for 24hrs in the freezer then heat the knuckle before install they’ll slide right in.
Front wheel nut torque on mine is 190ft/lbs make sure you torque them don’t guess or you will have play in the bearings-amzn.to/3cyqY0R
**Speed sensor- This goes in your “rear end” or rear final drive. It is where you fill the gear oil.
Put dialectic grease on the plug to make a water proof seal.

***Digital Speedometer/Tachometer/Odometor- I have not actually needed one yet but this fits the older style 500/700 Hisun,Powermax,Supermach,Benchee etc.

*steering rack- this bolted right in and fit perfect. I have 1100 miles on it and it’s still tight as brand new.
*Mishimoto Oversized Radiator- this was a game changer and makes the engine run so much cooler than stock. It’s for the 660 Rhino so it IS NOT a direct bolt on but easy to fab up brackets to make it fit. My engine never goes over 175°F even on long steep climbs on hot days.
Keeps everything much cooler and more reliable than stock. Watch for my video showing how I made the brackets. amzn.to/3v4bY0P
*Choke Cable-surprisingly this is a well built cable and fit 100%. I usually like to buy Yamaha cables but this one is high quality plus over half the cost. amzn.to/3ojeahu
*Clutch cover Rubber gasket-Fits perfect- amzn.to/3cr02zS
*4 wheel drive servo motor- if you need a new 4x4 electric motor this brand works great. Bolted right in.

*ENGINE iCE coolant. This stuff works at lowering engine temperatures!! amzn.to/3OnJG8g
*Oil Filter- These 700’s have an oddball oil filter that is NOT the same as the 660 or 700 Yamaha Rhino. Here’s the link to the filter I use amzn.to/3RSIhJV
** package of 2 oil filters-amzn.to/3V3yIJQ
*Clutch Shim Kit-I used these shims to lower my low end gearing. These sxs’s are geared taller than the Rhino so need all the help they can get. amzn.to/3RPodrP
