Hey all! Recently bought a 2006 Kodiak 450 (same as Grizzly 450)

One thing I noticed is that a few of the rubber bushings (or whatever they're called) on a few spots on the rear A-arms look to have dry rotted and cracked a bit (the CV boots are fine though).

What is this part? I scoured the parts diagrams but can't find it?

Here are a few pics of that... Is this a problem or is it ok to use as is?

 

I don't even think those are existent on my 2011 550...so I would say that you are good to go! I would guess that is a bearing seal that fits inside the hub, but I would say that you are still good to ride it like that and then change when you do the bearings the next time!
