On rear aluminum hub on a 2000 Sportsman 500 there is a grease zerk going right in to the hub. My question is what type of grease do I use Polaris al season grease or Polaris U-joint grease? also how many pumps do I give it? does it oooz out any where?


THANKS

 

so know one knows this one!!!!!!!

 

I think you can just use the same grease as the rest of the suspension. But I could be wrong. Come to think of it, I don't remember where the excess comes out.

 

Thanks for the advice but can someone please tell me more!!!!!!!

Thanks

 

I use mobil one for ALL the fittings....
including the u-joints[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
Yes,you will see it come out,the only one they say to worry about is the drive-shaft.Give it 3 pumps and thats it.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/img]

 

where will I see it come out that rubber cover on the outside of the wheel that says polaris on it? does the grease zerk in the hub fill the rubber cv boot with grease. Can that be over filled?

 

Two pumps should suffice.

 

The greese comes out the bushing right over top of it.
The cv has no grease fittings.
