I was wondering if any one can help me with some info on changing out
my rear wheel bearing on my 500 Cat. I don't see any snap rings or is there something I'm missing.
Please help

Shot in dark with no background in cats...own two yamahas and the bearings on those don't have snap rings...they just push in and then have the seal on each side of the hub. Each bearing on the front of mine at least have to go their own direction to get in and/or out...a bit of a pain in the butt to get out! Post back with more questions-i am sure someone will be able to give you a better answer than I have provided!

 

Here is a parts explosion of your rear axle. You can see there is supposed to be a seal, "C" clip and a bearing. I'm not sure if the bearing slides out or you need to use a puller.
