2022 Outlander Max 6x6

[ArlyA]

Arly I hope you're on the mend and I'll take your posting as a sign that you are.
This shaft, I had pictured this when you mentioned this issue last season as one of the front wheel drive shafts. Clearly it's not. Where is the shaft, between the engine/transmission and the front rear axle? Or is this interaxle between 2 rear axles that I thought the rear most axle was chain driven from the front (rear) axle?
Front rear, rear front terms don't make for good reading. I hope you understand this dribble.

Its the front drive shaft, BRP calles it a propeller shaft that it drives the front differential.

So this is the new part? It will help how?

No idea, I didn't see one.

You said the photo shows all the parts. The red arrow is pointing to a part. Is that it?

Or is it more like a 1/2" thick hockey puck?

The kit shows all the part to replace the front propeller shaft. We only needed to take the shaft off to add the limiter.

So the limiter is a homemade part that is like a 1/2" washer or hockey puck to limit how far the shaft can slide?

Its 1/2 thick. He thought that 5/8 thick might have worked but this thickness barley got together. This 1 inch wide plug was put in the rear coupler to limit its rearward movement.

Here is another photo of him cutting the spacers out.

Next time this machines gets into the shop I'm adding some insulation to the beds tool box by the muffler and cut a few holes in it so more air passes through it. Last winter its HDPE cover warped from heat.

I have been working on the box modifications but not enough photos to be posted.

The older I get the more medications I have to take. I suppose for a long day outside I should get a box to hold the meds.
Please let me know how your box of medications project is going.

Box insulation was updated today. Below is the rear view and the bottom tool box is the lower BRP decal.

 

[ArlyA]

here is what the underside of the box looks like and a view of a few vent holes I cut in in. These will have some screen added to them.

 

[ArlyA]

Now insulation added to the heat shielding. Top photo shows the original factory stuff. In the lowest photo you can see the extra insulation I added.

 

[ArlyA]

Extra heat shielding went on, venting added to under-bed tool box and everything is back together today.

This Warn faring was finally installed yesterday. Its nice! The old one was bent and this one has a larger bottom roller that suppose to be better for plow use.

At work yesterday.

 

[ArlyA]

Got pods on today and ready for snow. A few updates have been done. Putting plow on is no big deal.

Worked to get this light pole wired over the holiday and its finally ready to go on. There is a switch for each light and the strobe is a green LED and very bright. It will go on the front of the tool box. Will post more later.
