While the affected wheels are off the ground, wiggle the wheel back and forth and look at all of the balljoints on the spindle. You should be able to tell where the movement is coming from if you look closely. It is most likely a wheel bearing issue as was already suggested, but if you have worn balljoints, you will need to fix that asap, if they come loose while you are riding fast bad things can happen.

      bearing and seal replacement questions for 2005 Scrambler 500
      By p5200
      Hello, what is the best method for installing bearings into their race? I've set one in place and tapped it down until it was metal on metal. Is that sufficient? Surely it's not supposed to go into the race until flush? Also. does the coil spring on the seal go into carrier bearing housing not facing out? Thanks! 🙂 Seal goes in until flush correct?

      2004 500 cooling fan not coming on.
      By Kawiherder
      It starts and runs Ok but after a while the temp gage lights up and the fan fails to start.  Any suggestions on where to start looking would be helpful.  Thanks

      If you had to choose one mod that you couldn't live without, or had to recommend one what would it be?

      Need opinions on whether I should pull carb on 2005 Scrambler
      By p5200
      Hello folks, my machine wound up with I think water in the tank etc. It runs but speeds up and slows back down randomly. When not running I don't see gas dripping  from the drain nipple on bottom of float bowl and drain screw is closed tight. With normal idle speed I see no leaking. When the idle speed increases quite a bit on it's own, gas appears to start slowly dripping from float bowl drain nipple? I'm wondering if the carb is flooding and the gas is actually coming from higher up and just appears, to be coming out of nipple but, is actually running down the sides of the nipple? I put a kit in the factory Mikuni carb last year after sitting for a while and I think the gas in the jug I used had drawn moisture. I plan to pull the carb tomorrow and clean everything out. I was just curious if anyone else thinks it's probably something in the carb and is, acutally a flooding problem? Thanks Folks! 🙂

      Front Wheel Drive Shaft Boots

      I have to replace all 4, how much is involved?  Will they slide out of the front yoke? Or, do the boots just slide over the wheel end?
