Since I pulled off my bad rear wheel to get it repaired (see other post) I decided since the rear is jacked up I'll inspect the other wheel.
When I grab the wheel at the 3 and 9 oclock position there is no play but at 12 and 6 there is some movement. I can't remember the ball joint/wheel bearing rule. does this mean my hub nut isn't torqued proper or possibly a bad bearing. My quad is only 7 months old with 60hrs.

Thanks in advance. I know you guys will pull through again.

 

the wheel bearings all have a little play, sure its not the bushings?

 

there is some play which is normal, not sure how much you have.

 

pushing and pulling on the tire (25" stock) it's probaly rocking at least 1cm. I will check again tomorrow and also put a tourqe wrench to the hub retaining nut to ensure it's at 80ft/lbs.

My rear end is jacked up right now so I cant check the front and dont have the other back wheel right now to use as a reference. For all I know they all have some play and I'm over re-acting.

 

Ok so I checked it today and I was overestimating the play. There is only a mm or 2 play when push/pulling the hub. The right side wheel has no play at all.
I was thinking the hub retaining nut maybe not torqed enough. Ive never messed with a drive hub before. Only trailer hubs in the past and I never torqed them down so I am aprehensive about putting 80 ftlbs to this badboy.
Anyone know what size socket the rear retaining nut is. I need to buy one because nothing in my garage is that big.
