{"product_id":"rzr-170-transmission-counter-shaft-23","title":"RZR 170 Transmission Counter Shaft #23","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe counter shaft is the backbone of your RZR 170's gearbox — the counter gear rides on it, and every bit of power headed to the rear wheels passes through this shaft. If yours is showing wear at the bearing surfaces, scored journals, or damaged splines, replacing it with anything less than OEM is asking for a repeat teardown.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThis is the genuine Polaris OEM counter shaft, part number 0452526, position #23 on the RZR 170 transmission cover parts diagram. It also cross-references to AEON part #2342139A-000 — AEON is the OE manufacturer behind this engine platform, so you're getting exact factory spec on material, hardening, and machining tolerances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eDoing a full trans refresh? Grab the matching counter gear (#22, part 0452527) plus fresh transmission bearings and the output shaft seal while the cases are open — it's the same labor either way, and you'll only want to do this job once.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitment:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003ePolaris RZR 170 2009-2020\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Polaris","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54030963999004,"sku":"0452526","price":99.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0691\/5679\/8748\/files\/rzr170-transmssion-counter-shaft--0452526.jpg?v=1783111009","url":"https:\/\/www.drowsports.com\/products\/rzr-170-transmission-counter-shaft-23","provider":"DROWsports","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
