Carrier Bearing:

Hey guys I wanna take apart my rear carrier bearing to clean & grease it & have never done it before. I am mechanically inclined so it shouldn't be a problem for me. Any help & advice to steer me in the right direction would be great!

Well I got it all apart & out of the quad. Bearings are noisey & I can feel them binding when I spin them. Looks like i'm gonna have to replace thm. So my next question is what brand & why?

Ya man. It works perfect. Make sure you get as much grease outta there as you can before you heat it tho...and make sure you take the o-rings off.
