Hi. I. Recently purchased a 2021 can am defender and took it in for an oil change. The unit has 130 hours and 1900 miles. They say i need axels replaced and brakes replaced. Would this be normal? Thank you for any help. C.

Brakes , probably.
Axles , unless they're damaged ( bent , broken or otherwise ) no .
A dealer will probably tell you you need an axle if a boot is torn . It's more lucrative for them to replace the whole axle .

No idea , sorry.

Agree with Angore, brakes maybe but axles should be fine unless damaged. How many axles do they say need to be replaced and why?

As for the parking brake, I believe it became an accessory in 2020. You could pull a little lever up under the steering wheel after pressing the brake pedal down. P/N 715004733

I added the prake lever to my 2019. Works GREAT when winching.

Brake pads sure that's not too shocking/unexpected.

Axles? Yeah, ask 'em to show you which one(s) and why they say replacement.

I'm contemplating putting this brake lever on my 2020. I reviewed the installation instructions and they appear to be very detailed, but I know that can be misleading. What was your experience in the install process?
