Saw on slingmods they sell an alpha cover plate with a screw that covers a hole on the transmission housing into the flywheel. Why is this there and do all cover it up? Selling it as an aid for dirt and water. Why was it manufactured this way? How many have left it alone? Any adverse reactions being open?
Transmission cover plate????
-
Too many questions. Yes, it's a stupid oversight by Polaris/GM, and I'd be willing to bet that 99% of us has installed one on ours. No sense asking for problems. Especially when it's an easy fix.
-
cheapest mod on the market

One of the first things I did. I remember showing my dealer the open space on the side where the plate covers. He was like how the hell did they not see that.
-
Thanks guys I'll get one too.
-
Stupid design problem, stupid easy fix.
-
Easy fix but remember to take it off if you try to pull the engine
Some of us have found out the hard way that it keeps the engine from coming out if you leave the plate in. -

Lmao @Tripod, are you saying your as old as god ! or does it just seem that way some days !
-
Does this apply to the 2017 as well or did they pull their heads out of their @ss and fix it? I will have to look if no one is sure.

Well if Tripod CAN walk on water, shouldn't his slingshot be able to RIDE on water without doing a MIMS?
Sorry Marco, it's too soon for that, huh? -

2017 will still need the plate...

The chance for something destructive to actually get in that hole is slim to none. BUT, we only need one person to prove that wrong... are you "the one"?

Other than having to be a contortionist to get the bolt in, it was one my first installs, simply because it was cheap and a common sense preventative measure.
