P1000 front propeller

[shadleyp]

I apologize if there is already a thread that answers these questions - if so please send me there otherwise I greatly appreciate any help you all might have. I have a 2016 Pioneer 1000 that has broken its front propeller shaft joint and I cannot seem to remove the front joint - the drive shaft is separate and out but I cant seem to remove the front section that is broken. Also do I have to remove more than just the floor board to access the front piece? Seems like there is only a small access panel that gives little to no access ... is there a secret? Also any recommendations on a complete assembled propeller shaft? I greatly appreciate the info I have already found on this forum! Thanks

You need to unbolt the front diff and slide it forward. Take the wheels off. Loosen front diff , slide forward and then the prop shaft should slide off. From what I've been told. Not what I've done yet. Yet being the key word. I still need to.

This man knows the secret....



Seriously though, what @Gabbas said is how you'll need to get it out.

How did you remove and install your propeller shaft?

Thank you for any help you can offer.

What year, model, miles and mods does your rig have?
Pics before you tore it up would be nice too!

Well, that sucks.
To install, you have to pull the front diff forward a few inches.
I don't think it has to be removed completely and seems like the axles and arms could stay as well.
Just leaving them in makes it a little more difficult but it's doable.

FYI, The joint can be replaced but last I heard they are on BO.

Check this out, I just added this to the store last week. I recommend this over OEM.
