2002 Sportsman 500 HO Front Hub Issue

[richclick2010]

New problem.

I wanted to change the fluid in my front hubs only to find that there wasn't any fluid in them but full of grease instead.

Pulled the hub apart and found the hub seals are missing. I ordered Part # 3610019 that was listed for my model. They are too big. They measure 3.258in across and my hubs measure 3.10in. I was baffled. I can only assume that someone in the last 12 years replaced the hubs. They are Polaris hubs though. I have checked through several years and models and all I have seen list the same part number.

Anyone have any ideas on this or happen to know a seal part number with that measurement? The rotor hole is the same as the hub.

This is a 4x4 with Hilliard Clutch.

Thanks for your input.

well i know if you have a bearing a certain size and you go to napa, pep boys or a bearing outfit, they really dont care what its for and just go by the measurements, i imagine you can do the same with a seal ...
