DLBeltran74 47 Posted August 19, 2021 Ok Folks!!!! I just put new bearings and seals on the front knuckles. These little guys came with the bearing and seal kits and for the life of me I can not figure out where they go. I’ve looked at the diagram In my manual over and over and I don’t see them anywhere. I don’t even remember seeing anything like them when I took everything apart. Is this something for a different year model that this kit could work with or do these actually go on my bike? Anyone out there know!?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeepwm69 7,719 Posted August 19, 2021 I normally just toss them, but they're supposed to go up in the hub right in the middle 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ATC4ever 1,084 Posted August 20, 2021 I always wondered if they went on the end of the spline so when you put it in you dont damage it 😅 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TJA 47 Posted August 25, 2021 I just got done with that job myself. I had to slow down and look at them for a while before I figured it out. BTW, what bearings did you go with? Sealed or open? I used sealed bearings and repacked them with waterproof synthetic green grease, and then I packed the spindles like they were regular bearings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I used sealed too but I used that red tacky grease. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TJA 47 Posted August 26, 2021 I figured that the extra grease outside the seals would help protect them from water or mud intrusion. From reading here, that seems to be the problem. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
