hey all i want to change the wheel bearings on my quad just wondering if there is any other bearings i should change? and what rubber i should replace i'm pretty new to this so please go easy on me

 

Just change any bearings that have excessive play in them. Fit new "oil seals", you will probably have to destroy the old ones to remove the bearings anyway, and put plenty of grease on the new seals. Most wheel bearings are "sealed for life" but the seals need lubrication too.

 

make sure you clean out the area as well before you mount new bearings, scotch bright pads work well for this. Also make sure you have a socket the same size as your outer ring of bearing to pound back in, or a bearing press.

 

ok mate will do anything else you can thing of while im changing wheel bearings?

 

Another trick i forgot about. Toss the new bearings in the freezer for a hour or so. Then when you are ready for them slightly head the axle tube slightly with a torch. bearing will usually drop right in

 

sweet as thanks man
