Has anybody done thier rear bearings and gone threw all those steps. Did you guys buy that crowfoot from the dearership, if not how did you set your preload. I am just re doing mine as we speak and need advice.

You can use a strap wrench or pipe wrench, but be careful with the pipe wrench on the aluminum axle nut. I just snugged mine up with a strap wrench and backed it off a little. The crowfoot tool would be nice but I don't know how much it would cost.

I just ordered it from bombardier. It was $22.00. I think I will now charge $5.00 to set bearing preload on my friends DS's [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img]
