Go for it Rachel! Believe me, if I can do it you can to. It’s just turning wrenches. Let me know how it comes out.

Considering that the video is over 2years old and it’s still running fine I’d say I remembered! I passed that on to one of my sons who rides it daily..it has gone through another set of bearings but otherwise runs great. I bought anew Rubicon which I love. Thanks for your comment!

I take the axle housing off and knock them out from inside. There is a tool you can get that is made to pull them out.

I didn't use a torque wrench but I cranked it down hard. I've had to replace these bearings every 6 months or so for years. My hope was that a new axle would solve the problem. I'm sorry to say it hasn't so I've replaced the OEM brakes with an add on set of disc brakes. That got rid of the brake drum cover which always leaked and was full of mud. Time will tell if this works.

@@rickparker8883 let us know how it works out and thanks

@@rickparker8883 how much gear oil does the rear take my Manual calls for 2.9 but it don't reach the level check bolt hole I guess its a miss print

I had even noticed those tanks. I guess my son in law threw them there. Since this video was made we have pretty much finished the barn and moved the work table inside where we are out of the sun and rain. Plan 2 might be a plan someday! LOL! I got a 2018 Rubicon and given the Foreman to one of my sons. We just finished putting a rear disc brake setup on it which is a huge improvement.

I spend a fair amount of time in the woods looking for them and have only found maybe a dozen. After Hurricane Irma i drove up and down roads looking over their storm-damaged oaks that they had piled at the curb. Actually found some really nice ones that way.

It could be the splines on your axle are gone or possibly the whole rear end is shot. Start pulling it apart and see what you find.

Alberto- River Ranch is near Lake Wales. Lots of guys from Vero ride there but you do have to buy a lot to do so. Lots are very cheap.

I wouldn't take it down, maybe add a RUclips Annotation to the video that explains how you figured out which seal goes where.

Matthew, I put it up in the hope that it would help someone else make the same repair. If I had any idea a guy as smart as you would come along I would have waited for you to post a video. It's "wasted," waist is what your pants go around.

What exactly did you show that was helping the world. One minute you was working on it and the next somebody was fixing to back it off the ramp and taking the break cables off just gives you a chance to loose your hardware

@@matthewjohnson2495 - Maybe I should make a video explaining how to stop watching a video you don't like, apparently you'd benefit from it.

You have my admiration or sympathy! Lol! That's a big job. I love my old Foreman but admit that I just bought a 2018 Rubicon. I was spending too much time repairing it and had gotten to the point that I didn't ride without another ATV along to pull me home if need be. They are great ATV's ion my opinion.

Rick Parker well i work at a shop and am fortunate enough to know how to work on it and get everything at cost, but great video man

Sounds like you should be doing a video of your rebuilding process! That would be very interesting and cover a lot of repair procedures. Rookies like me need all the help we can get.

Rick Parker well once all my parts come in i will for sure do it

@@greatmindof1201 - Good deal! Let us know so we can watch.

As I said, I'm not a mechanic but that would be my guess as well. Sounds like it's crushed.

Rick Parker thanks

@@johnlocklear9093 It could really be anything. Axle bearings, ring gear, pinion gear. My money would be on the gear. This is usually caused by water getting into the rear axle housing and causing the hypoind gear lube to fail. You should be changing that fluid often if you go through water.

Paul, No idea. I bought all the parts as a kit.

Yes, it does! We borrowed it from our neighbor to test it out and it sure works like a champ. Even though the ground is sand it was full of palmetto roots so it would have been tough going with a post hole digger. Good luck on your roof and deck!

That was in Breckenridge with Good Times Adventures but I understand there are lots of other places you can go to get a taste of dog sledding. It was great fun but the truth is that the "driver" is riding like the passenger. There is no steering involved with the dogs simply following the snowmobile. We all loved it and would do it again tomorrow!
