• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

I have a 2016 F3 Limited, and that looks like an RT.......I have only commented as you may get differing specs for the axle, as BRP changed from a lower torque setting of 90? or so to 160 ft/lbs a couple (few?) years ago........AND...... 160 is bloody hard to get to.

Disc Rotor 68 ft/lbs
Brake Caliper 77
Axle 166 (+/- 10lbs)

I got the same response when I called, so I just took it into one of those tires shops with a new tire and the rim and said can you change this for me? They said sure no problem, I never did tell them what it was for.

Yep, same for me.....all 3 local tyre shops were happy to change it......mind you, I did buy the tyres from the shop I used to change them. There is absolutely no difference to changing a normal car wheel/tyre, except they have trouble balancing it.

Tire

I took my whole rear wheel and hub assy to my local Dealer here in Wichita, KS. and had no problem putting on the Yokohama S Drive. Took 15 min and $27. Im a happy camper. Heck I thought 96 FT lbs was a lot if torque for my 2012 RT.
 
Got my tire and balancer on today. Was not too bad even mounting tire myself everything
Seems good belt is running almost center of the pulley. Has anyone else noticed the
Parking brake pawl on the caliper rubbing on their muffler? Once again thanks for the
Info on torque specs

Since you've taken it off yourself, take it in and there's no need to tell them what it's off of. Keep going around the shops until you find one that has the small hub lock.
 
I don't believe that these have been changed since the 2014's
