2002 RM 250 - Replacing Swingarm Bearings w/ Motion Pro tool (time lapse)

My swingarm was squeaking! I decided it was time to change them out and took a little video of the project. I used a suspension bearing removal tool from Motion Pro, which came in very handy. If anyone is curious about the steps for a project like this, I hope this video helps! Disclaimer, I'm no mechanic, just having fun in my garage. All sarcasm and constructive criticism is fully welcome here. Thanks my dudes and dudettes!!

My manual says the nut for the swingarm pivot is on the right side but I have the same style as yours. I have a 98

just picked up the tool, I was having trouble confirming if it worked with swingarm and linkage parts. based on your video it looks like it does. thanks

Glad it helped! yes it does work for both swingarm and linkage, very happy with it.

@@mfmonthefmf I’m doing the bearings and everything correctly just like in the vid but when I go to put the swingarm on the frame the thruster washers or whatever are sticking out to much and it won’t fit
