Thank you for taking the time to do this video. Even though I spent 25+ years earning a living working on cars I had no idea on how to approach the worn spindle bearings on my wife's Kodiak. Great video!!
I’m about to embark on this on my kodiak, I was totally confused about the front being 3 pieces, I was glad to find your video, now I know what I’m getting myself into
Awesome Video. You're like me lol "love of the grease". You do that and everything breaks in so much better and last so much longer. I like to wipe seals as clean as I can get them after the instal and then wash with a little soap and water. Keeps the dust from forming and grinding the seal(s) out. They make a spray too though I don't remember the name of it but it keeps rubber soft. Its price is up there though. I just ride till my big bear 400 needs a wash and then power wash it. Again Awesome video
What happens if the bearing spacer gets dinged up on the inside of it? it got dinged up trying to get my bearings out... they were really hard to get out. I had to use an impact gun with a round punch on it to get the bearings to move. I tried to smooth out the inside of the spacer as much as I could, but I don't know if its good to put it back in with it like that?
Good Video, Next time just smack the side of the Knuckle where the ball joint is going through the knuckle and the ball joint will "Pop", then just remove the nut and you are good.
The only addition to this video would be to heat the knuckle, and freeze the bearings...... the bearings will drop in without having to "seat" them with a hammer.
hang in there I know the feeling same here we can't go any were at the moment But what a great trip it will be I hope you post some more on the trip as I am your newest subscriber
Best Yamaha bearing replacement video available! Perfect with all the little details..Great Job!

Great video. Broke down step by step. And I like the way you showed to check and grease the ball joints while you have everything apart.
One of the best how to vids out there. Good job sir!
those thing arent soppose to be that loose. ball joint should never be like that.

Good video exactly how i expected the job would be just getting ready to do this on all 4 corners on mine
Very very helpful video. Thank you very much for the details because it helped me with my 02 Grizzly 660.

Any ideas on what numbers are on the bearings I'm having trouble knowing what quad I have to get the right ones

Use breakcleaner to clean the grease of the small balljoints!!! Works faster.

Think my spacer is stuck in the hub or is there a stop inside there whatever is stuck in there is pretty banged up and not coming out
Large center punch for the top ball joint. Much easier. :)
Whats with girl sitting still in the back of the shop?
My tires wobble very hard makes a clicking noise to
Invest in a press! Makes for a useful tool
Hello, you do not know if this kit serves me for a yamaha grizzly 450 year 2007 4x4
dont know
GrEaSe
Good Video, Next time just smack the side of the Knuckle where the ball joint is going through the knuckle and the ball joint will "Pop", then just remove the nut and you are good.
I do that on all my cars. This quad has cast aluminum knuckles. Very easy to break off.
They wont break off. My brother and I do it all the time, he is a mechanic for Yamaha.
He said 6 to 8 hours of labor, lol maybe 1 hour to do both sides l
Exactly . lol even te stealership wouldn"t charge 6 to 8 hours lol
Torque for the hub nut?
For 2000-2002 Kodiak 110ft lb.
WE CALLED A GUY AT THE SHOP ''THOR'' CAUSE HE USES A BIG HAMMER TO REPAIR THINGS LOLOL
The only addition to this video would be to heat the knuckle, and freeze the bearings...... the bearings will drop in without having to "seat" them with a hammer.
I said that on one of the 3 videos that if anyone wants to make it easier, put them in the freezer. They went in easy anyways.
Can I ask how is the RV trip going ????
Staying with parents right now due to Covid. Hard to find open sites with many state campgrounds closed.
hang in there I know the feeling same here we can't go any were at the moment But what a great trip it will be I hope you post some more on the trip as I am your newest subscriber
You aren't supposed to put grease on the outside of a barring ??
These are sealed greased bearings
The Heat Gun is As Useful as Trying to Pee On A Housefire LOL
How did that take 8 hours??
Cause I was filming. 4 hr job
