General Discussion / Re: Can they interchange ?

Got to looking on the internet again and the factory rims are 7s front,8s rear.
I'm not going to need to buy rims after all
But i am going with 27x10x14 all theway around.
I looked real good and the only thing that could get in the way would be brake lines.Thats a easy fix

I guess i'm going to look around the internet and see if i can find 2 factory used front rims to replace the back ones with .By what i'm understanding ,this will get me square and i shouldnt have any problems.
How much more width if i went 4 + 3.

Nmk.
You are just a world of information and i'm super greatfull that your here and so willing to be of help.
If i'm understanding you correct ,I cant put 27x10s on all four of the factory rims without having problems?
If i have the same size rims all the way around like the 9s that are factory and on front ,i wont have any problems.
I just want to do it right and not tear up my machine.
If need be YES i can buy new rims ,,,,,,,but prefer not to ,,,,,only if i have to.

i'm still looking on the internet at rims and wanting to go square.The stock rims are not a bad looking rim plus i would save some $ if i used them.
Have by chance has any one done this?If so what size tires did you go with?

I use a glass cleaner call spray way.You can get it at a hardware store and i think wal mart in the automotive section.
It's a good glass cleaner that will not hurt poly.

So i buy rims that are 8x14 and a 9'' or 10'' tire will work?
I've looked at all the selection of both rims and tires,It's like  just to many choices.But i guess veriety is good.

I have a 2018 z force trail 800 that i have looked all over the web about rims that will interchange with it.So far i've found the Kawi brute force.
I haven't seen anything about the cforce or the uforce rims being able to interchange with the z force?
I'm wanting to go square on the zforce and like most i'm trying to save a few $.
I do know that i want to go with 27s as far as tires go.What is the widest i should go and not have any problems.
Thanks

WOW. Talk about a safety issue as i see it.That just blows my mind them doing that.I always use my emergency brake.
And like smitty42 i live in Idaho and we have plenty of mountains .
I live in Weiser and am still riding the Payette Forest area.Beautiful
country.
I wonder if this might turn into a recall issue.

I will next time i pull stuff apart.Thank you for the link .I'll have my Daughter print
it for me,My printer took a dump.
Thamks so much for your time.

my bad and i have no idea where i came up with K&N. Wow,i have no idea what i was thinking when i wrote that.But what about the outerware,Oil it or not.My machine is a 2018 z force 800 trail.
You said you had service manulas.the 2017 you have would my 2018 be close to whats in it.If so how do i get a service manual.The air cleaner i have is the uni filter ,like i said it has 2 pieces of styrofoam that go over the houseing on the air cleaner.I know you've seen them.

Since we have this service question thread going, iv'e a few questions also.
I'm going to be doing a few things on my 2018 z force and need to gain some know how.
When i grease my wheel bearings what are the tourqe settings for the Hub
and calipers?
This machine i bought last year 2022 from an older couple who took great care of it.When i cleaned my air filter i noticed it was a K & N .It had a outer ware then 2 filters on the filter it self.I cleaned all 3 sprayed them with filter oil.Should i not have sprayed the outerware?

Being an auto glass /glazing tech all of my life we used a great glass cleaner called Spray way.You can use it on anything includeing plastics.
It can be found in hardware stores,Wal Mart,places like that.Not only does it clean your glass but it has a great smell.
With things going up all the time i have no idea what the cost is.

Will the bearing grease tool you used fit both front and back
axels? I was looking at a video on u tube and greasing the bearings look cut n dry
once you get it apart.It all looks simple.
How often should i grease them?
