The updated lower driveshaft repair kit is a must on a new or used sidewinder.The updated bearing has a collar that is pressed in to the bearing I.D. and has 3 Allen screws to lock to the lower shaft.$160, this should be added to the list of fixes.They are available @ Barn of Parts,or call Travis during buisness hours @717-821-9639

It sure would be nice if Cat takes care of some of the known problems that have been around since 2017. 20,000 grand spent on a sled that needs to be torn apart when brand new to make it reliable is getting ludicrous!
