2001 TRX250EX Rear End Rebuild

[TheJester517]

Hey guys, about to start working on my step father's 2001 Honda TRX250EX Sportrax, I need help with the rear end. The quad runs and rides, but the tires wobble like crazy and I'm pretty sure it's the bearings, trying to get a manual

I also have to do an oil change and I was curious if anyone has a part number for a gallon of honda oil

[TheJester517]

and whether or not its the same oil for the transmission

[TheJester517]

and part number for an oil filter as well

thanks guys

The wheel berings were bad on an old Honda that I picked up. The wabble like you said and also put a good beating on the nuts that hold the hub in place.  Try not to ride until you get the bearings replaced. The damage to the axles and the big nut that holds in in place (castle nut) was pretty significant. Although the axels were salvageable the bearings and nuts were shot but not hard to replace.  Lots of grease as well when reassembling.

Thanks man, I got the service manual and took apart the whole rear, every set of bearings was shot, and I had a hell of a time getting the old races out of the swingarm on the left side. I just had the drum machined and I'm gonna put it back in in the next day or so and hopefully that solves the issue.
