Joshua w/ OffroadTwins brought in his 2024 XMR 1000R Renegade for some 4wd issues. For those that donβt know, in 2021, CanAm released the 4Lok front differential. Great addition for certain riding styles but it had flaws. The major issue is, the ring gear bolts back out and can snap off. This can result in loss of 4wd or possible severe damage causing an expensive bill/fix. The root cause of the issue is either the bolts are not loctited properly or theyβre overly impacted/torqued. This is a common issue in the 2021+ models. We have fixed quite a few of these in the past but this has been the first one we have seen that has sheared all 8 ring gear bolts. As of now, weβve only seen *2* 2025 Renegades have this issue. So if you notice your 4wd starts acting up or your front differential starts making some horrible noiseβ¦. Then you might want to have it checked out soon. Luckily, Joshua immediately stopped riding his machine and got it to us. We cleaned the differential up, installed 8 new ring gear bolts, and also replaced the 2 torqx screws on the assembly itself. We also found his front output shaft coupler was loose so we fixed that issue as well. Installed some new axle seals, got it all back together and itβs ready to go. We will be doing a YouTube video on this issue and plan to have it up this weekend! So be sure to tune in for that. Thank you Joshua for trusting us with your machine and repairs. Look forward to seeing you guys soon on the trails!!!
