03 eiger rear wheel bearings (left rear)

:confused:I tore up my left wheel bearings on straight axel eiger.Question = does anyone know which way they have to go in? can the axel shaft go in from the outsideof the swingarm tube or does the tube have to come off and put axel back from the inside and bolt the tube back together?

I would start by taking the wheel and hub off, you may be able to remove a circlip and pull the axle and bearings out from the outside. If that does not seem to be possible, then you might have to remove the entire axle housing from the rear diff and take it out from the inside. I would highly recommend buying a service manual or atleast consulting a dealer tech who can tell you for sure, how it needs to be done.

thanks, the wheel and axel came out when the bearing finally went,I ordered kits for both sides and when i did I asked the mechanic about it and he couldnt be sure (he is a new guy and not familiar with the eiger)it looks like you said but not sure i might have to take tube off to drive out the outer races.today i am taking axel to work to get hub off luckily im a machinist so I have acess to every thing I might need.the kit should be here tues so I just want to get a head start on it. Thanks I think your right about the circlip and how it goes in I will keep you posted.

update:axel tube has a snapring/circlip got it out holes were on the topside of tube outer races are in tube tight removed left axel tube, came off easy will take to work and bore out if I cant get them out.I need a new seal surface on hub but i can turn it down and shrink a sleeve on and tig weld that should save me on a hub.just have to get the other hub off left side took some heat to break nut loose. looks like it will be back rolling soon after bearings get here. other side should come apart like its supposed to I hope.thanks again for the help still havent got a shop manual too cheap to buy one besides like most guys i never get lost or read the insructions lol

Its back together now outer races came out but had to make a tool to drive out also quadboss bearings came with 2 seals suzuki only used 1 so while I had axel tube at work I bored out what I thought was a spacer behind the bearings and installed the extra seal on the inside of bearings probably not necessary but could help keep rear differential dry just wanted to pass that along gotta go time to ride thanks again

      Hey I have a 1997 big bear 350 4x4
      I replaced the shifter shaft and the shift arm linkage and the rod when I installed them all I was unaware that you had to line the dot on the shifter shaft with the gap on the linkage arm gap put it all back  together and rode it I can't get it to shift in the right gears  I can move the shift cam by hand and goes in different gears but with the shifter shaft in it riding I can't put it in R or N 
      Anyone know how to line up the shifter shaft and the shift cam s

      Hello everyone, I just picked up an 02 LT-F250F the other day and have been in the process of tearing it down to fix some stuff- one of which was the cylinder base gasket leaking like a sieve. Well, I know why that is now, and I also discovered that someone had been in there before. I didn't take pictures, but it looks like it was probably run low on oil at some point, the cam journals and the "bearings" (for lack of a better term) in the head and the valve cover are totally wiped out, very deep grooves.  From what I know it's very difficult to repair aluminum in this way, so I'm trying to figure out where to go next.
       
      1. Have someone grind down the head and valve cover and fit actual bearings in since the aluminum is screwed, and have the cam ground down to match.  I have no idea what this would cost.
      2. Buy a replacement head+cam+valve cover.
       
      #1 I was hoping someone might have some advice on, but #2 seems like it'll (probably) be the more cost effective option.  However I'm running into some difficulty, it seems like the 2001 and 2002 models specifically use a different head part number,  11100-19B10, instead of  11100-19B01 like for all earlier models.  What exactly is the difference between them? There are obviously far more of the earlier heads because it ran for over 10 years.  Are they actually interchangeable? I've also noticed there are heads from the LT250EF that has 4 valve heads but also otherwise look identical.  Would those work as well possibly?  I'd like to not have to drop $500 on machine work or new heads on a $1300 quad that I'm already putting a bunch of new parts on.  Oh, and it has a new piston and the cylinder itself looks pretty good too, as I said someone was in here before me.
       
      Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. I'll post pics of the carnage tomorrow.

      I’m looking for a top end kit for a Yamaha. I would like to see how well the engine runs before spending $6-$7 hundred on oem. Niche has complete kits from $1-$2 hundred.  Anyone have experience with Niche or similar Chinese companies?

      My 2008 can-am Outlander 800r is having hard shifting issues. Does anyone have a fix for this ?
    • By Am2007
      Hi everyone,
      Outlander 2006 400 XT i have replace the startor cover and right after i did that the oil light is on and not turn off, i check the wires and checked the oil level, everything seem to be normal quad is starting without any problem and rev just fine. i did not want to ride it since im not sure if it is faulty sensor or not so just be safe i did not let it run more the a minute or so. 
      I have read in the owner manual that i need to clean the oil strainer every 200hr unfortunately i never did that, my service manual that i have does not even indicate of such a thing. so i did some search around and it seem like canam split the manual into 3 parts
      owner manual
      service manual
      engine manual
      I have the first 2 but i can not find the last one, part number 219100232. If someone can guide me where do i find the oil strainer so i can clean it i will appreciate it.   im going to do an oil pressure test tomorrow to check how many PSI i have, just to make sure.
      Thanks
