Rear end went out on it at the end of last season. Just bought another bike. The 300's motor is still strong and tranny shifts ok. Should I replace the rear end and axle bearing or should I just bite the bullet and scrap it. Leaning towards the rebuild but have no experience doing it.

Rebuild! That is the greatest 4 wheeler ever built.

Prices high on any used ATV. I would fix.

Fix it or bring it to someone who can. You’re looking at ballpark $350 for a aftermarket rear diff. If you need a axle about $120ish.

Scrap and put on curb, but tell me first ;)

Fix it, best 4-wheeler ever, well worth the expense!

I’d rebuild but there is one part of the rebuild on diff. that requires a special tool. Plus the correct rebuild also requires color coding/marking/aligning of gears. I did everything but those two and had Honda so the rest and it was not expensive.

Axle bearings are easy to replace.

I listed mine on FB marketplace this weekend, but had to pull it off today. Went to rode it one last time before a buyer showed up, and the rear diff went to clunking. Not sure I wanna drop the price and sell as is, so may order a new rear end and swap em out. I've heard the needle bearing or some shite is hard to mess with while doing a rebuild.
