Grizzly 700 Clutch installation

We decided to go with 4 Kodiak weights and 4 660 Grizzly weights. The parts numbers are 5GH-17632-00-00 and 5KM-17632-00-00 respectively. Overall impression is nice low returned back to you if you have switched to over sized or heavier tires. We recommend you to refer to the service manual before trying this install.

(1) Remove (6) (4mm) Allen screws and (4) (10mm) bolts to disconnect and remove right side floorboard from the Grizzly.

(a) Remove the side panel for better access.

(2) Remove (12) (10mm) bolts all the way around your Drive belt cover and remove.

(3) Remove (4) (10mm) bolts from the metal Bearing housing and remove the bearing housing.
* The two longer bolts are located on the front and rear corners of the bearing housing. (Don’t lose the two dowel pins in this section of the take down).

(4) Take the two long bolts from the previous step and insert them in the two holes on the rear pulley / secondary sheave. Tighten and leave them in. This will loosen the CVT belt and allow the primary sheave assembly to slide of easily.

(5) Loosen and remove the 22mm primary sheave nut from the primary clutch shaft.
NOTEYou can use an impact driver for this but we recommend using Yamaha part number 90890-01701 YS-01880-A Sheave holder Primary clutch holder. It is your motor!
NOTE this nut is a standard right-hand thread so turn it Counterclockwise to remove it
NOTE the primary sheave nut has 100 foot pound of torque on it.

(6) Remove the primary pulley sheave assembly.

1.Remove eight small screws and washers from the primary sheave assembly. And remove the primary sheave assembly cap. Take special care at this point as there is an O-ring on the assembly.

2.If you are careful and keep the grease clean you should not need to regrease anything.

(7) Swap the weights out i.e. (Kodiak weight 660 weight) all the way around the assembly.
NOTE: a small amount of grease on each weight will help hold the weights in place.

Re-assembly

1. Install the primary sheave back onto the main clutch shaft taking special care that the splines align on the primary clutch shaft completely. An extra set of hands are very handy at this point to hold the primary sheave in place.

2. Install the 22mm nut and washer and just snug down.

3 Install the primary sheave assembly cap and the 8 phillips head screws and tighten to 2.2 ft. lbs.

4. Hold the primary sheave in place and tighten the 22mm nut to 100 ft. lbs. (Again you can use an impact wrench but we do not recommend this.) NOTE: MAKE SURE THE SHAFT SPLINES ARE COMPLETELY ALIGNED WITH THE PRIMARY CLUTCH SHAFT.

5. Verify the 2 dowels pins are still in place and re-install the bearing housing and tighten the 4 bearing housing bolts to 7.2 ft. lbs.

6. Place bike in park and start the engine. Rev it up several times noting the phasing of the primary sheave and belt.

7. Once satisfied of the proper clutch operation re-install the drive belt cover and tighten the 12 drive belt cover bolts to 7.2 ft. lbs of torque.

8. Re-install the floor board and any additional plastic you may have removed.

Installation Complete!

Re: YAHAMA GRIZZLY 700 CLUTCH WEIGHT INSTALL

Awesome step by step install. How much were the new kodiak and 660 weights? Basically, total project cost?

Total for the 8 weights was 32.00. I did have to go to the hardware store and purchase a deep well 22mm socket for 4.99 also.

Awesome write-up! Looks like a good weekend project for my 700.

Overall time is hard to judge as we were taking pictures and notes. I would estimate 1.5 hours total.

 

[chica-n-pablo]

Thanx for the info! awesome step by step. Need to get my 660 taken care of.

What kind of difference did you see? How much top end did you lose?

 

[GRIZZLYWIZARD]

My quad will still run 62 MPH. Didn't see much from the bottom end. Huge notice when you run along at 5 MPH and smack the throttle. She takes off like a rocket there.

 

[Koko]

Nice. I may have to try it out come the spring. :icon_thumleft:

 

[Mack450]

very cool review. wouldn't mind throwin some weights in mine.

i am in the process of changing my belt on my 02 660 grizz and am having a hard time removing the bearing housing. removed all 4 bolts didnt know if there was something else i was missing. and if i were to replace the grease how much and what type should i use. thanks for ur time.

 

[GRIZZLYWIZARD]

Only use the Yamaha Ultramatic grease. I am not sure what 4 bolts you are referring to.

 

[tec]

the 4 bolts that hold the bearing housing on. i did manage to get it off. i noticed that i have a little bit of play on the primary clutch shaft. is this normal??? if not what do i need to do?

 

[GRIZZLYWIZARD]

It isn't normal. Captjack is going through the same thing you are right now I believe. Hopefully he reads this and can chime in.

 

[tec]

i was afraid of that. i hope i dont have to pull my motor. thanks for all your time and info. i appreciate it. ( might be time to get the 700 ) i love my yamaha out of all the quads out there i would definately purchase another. not sure if i would want to swamp the 700 EFI though. sounds costly. thanks again.

 

[GRIZZLYWIZARD]

Quite possibly it is the one way bearing in the housing. My manual is missing at the moment so I cannot look it up for you.

I assume you mean the service manual. If so, you can go to this little page I put together for some different service and owner's manuals.

Got my clutch weights but forgot to order the tools necessary to install. Maybe I'll get her done next week. Can't wait.

 

[1Bad1000Xxc]

The only tools required for the install are a 22mm socket for the big nut on the crankshaft and a 10mm socket for the small bolts holding the plastic cover and metal housing on. if you have those, you're good to go.
