That's a great video, Dony. It's especially fun to watch this done in the smaller size of an ATV. I'm a little puzzled by the diagnosis. In a car, when the wheel wobbles at 12:00 and 6:00 it's usually a loose ball joint, not just a wheel bearing.... With two wheel bearings separated by a spacer, I presume ATV bearing take on more lateral stability?
I have a question. I recently bought a used 2009 rancher and when i checked the bearings there is a small amount of play. Not sure if its worth changing yet. How much play should there be for concern? Thx and awesome videos!
I never let the play be anymore then a 1/4in or so. I also wouldn't use all balls like he did I would go with oem. I have worn all balls and pivot works bearings out in. 2 short rides.
rear axle bearings ended up taking whole axle tube off the wheeler, long bar knocked out all but the races, had to torch them out cut a notch in top and bottom then hammered and chisel it out
Thanks donny :-) Another great tutorial :-) Parts washers are great, i used to use one and an auto repair shop, and an airline terminating in the typical lever gun just wizzed off the majority of the fluid :-)
Dony. Many thanks. I am just getting ready to do my right rear bearing and replace a broken knuckle on an older Arctic Cat 400 auto 4x4. Man, this vid was just what I needed on thinking through the disassembly. I like your methodical process. Very profesional. Thanks and I am looking forward to seeing any tips in the re-assembly.
Awesome! This video just taught me some great stuff! I have to replace the guts in my front wheels for my 4 wheel drive and this helped show what I'll be dealing with! Thanks as always and good health to you guys!
Got my bearings an seals.goona change mine out. I just watched the video just to remember what all i had to take off,Now moving on to your Part 2 Thanks
what part is that called that you are taking out the seals on? I broke the piece that the tie rod connects to the part. and looking for a replacement part for it.
Great video you explained everything in perfection, keep up the good work
yu're welcome, it may differ slightly but it will be the same principle
No play but I have squeaking like crazy. Idk maybe dirt caught. I used wd40 n now I squeak. Well that's a first
Why would mine constantly not idle right always turning the idle knob up the after a bit it’s too fast ? Suzuki eiger 04 .

@@hursteric yep I agree with that, sometimes it's just wort the extra 12.00 or so!
Anyways, can you say if Yamaha raptor 450cc front lower ballbearings go to my Falmek Force 400cc? (Yamaha Raptor 350cc copy with 400cc engine)
How come you still make videos into 2 parts? RUclips should have giving you the privilege of uploading videos much longer than 15 minutes.
Hey my 2 week old raptor gas light came on and went to put gas in and it was smokey inside? Any suggestions?
Cant wain till u get that parts washer
My first time workin on my quads and I was happy af I was able to get to my bearings lol great video. Now to replace em!!

Does your four wheel drive ATV have a lot of slack in the front wheels like this. Hell know mine has three times that haha
rear axle bearings ended up taking whole axle tube off the wheeler, long bar knocked out all but the races, had to torch them out cut a notch in top and bottom then hammered and chisel it out
GREAT JOB. Very understandable. Clear. To the point. Awesome. I subscribed!
Nice detail. I was only wondering about the Bearing removal but like how you made it idiot proof for the not so handy. Thanks
Dony had my mower out the other day to get it going again and it was making a nocking noise when I switched it off do you know what it will be
Hi Dony , are you able to do a piston ring change video ? and the steps to do it on a suzuki Eigher 400?

We always have those type of wheel bearings pressed in by an alignment shop.
I'm looking for a video on the rear axle. I have a 400 Eiger also 2007
Dony, You should go to the junk yard and get a broken atv and make videos for us.
What if you don't have the bearing spacer?
I don't even have an ATV but I watched the whole video.
I think it's because you make them interesting.
Nice video!
awesome!
Thank you for this video , I was able to fix my four wheeler in one hour.

Look at the diagram on your model: www.d2moto.com/pages/atv-parts or some other online part store that has your model.
