Honda Foreman 500 4x4 Front Wheel Bearing Replacement

[@kenrogers1282]

Doing my quad now, and have watched numerous video's on "how to". I have to say yours is the most well explained, and easiest to follow. Excellent job. Thank you.

[@davehogye576]

Thanks for sharing this video. A couple tips for future reference, I used the old seals to install the new seals. They fit nicely over the seal lip and it makes them easy to install without possible damage from the drift. Also, I add extra grease over the bearing after it's installed then I packed the seal and add grease between the bearing and seal after the seal is installed.

Over 13 thousand views and only one Thank You, now you have two at least. I thought it was a great video and particularly liked the fast forward redundant parts. The volume was a little low but don't let the constructive criticism take away from the fact that it's a great video. I haven't done this before on an atv but it's just like my Chevy and wanted to take a look before I did it. Thank You.

Thanks for the input, I do want to Improve my audio.

Hello, I found that my front wheel bearings were shot on my 500 Rubicon. I found your awesome video and it saved me! Thank you so much for posting this video. I live at the end of the road here and bringing the quad into a shop is more trouble than the repair itself. Again, Thank you! Cheers!

[@joebradley1520]

Good job, I sometimes put my bearings in the freezer for a while, it shrinks them enough where they will go in w/o much pounding.

[@andyhatch5818]

Thanks for the video was debating taking mine to the shop but job looks easy after watching your video.

[@josh-ww3en]

Thank you for the video, very helpful and straightforward

[@hunterblades9129]

High quality video man, great job

[@bobbystephens9878]

Great video on the bearing replacement, Thanks.

[@hunterwilson5647]

Thanks brother this is really helpful for me to not have to bring my atv to a mechanic and get charged so mutch more than just for the barring

[@muller93]

Excellent video. Really well done. Thanks very much.

[@weekender38]

You make it look so easy!!!!! THANKS

[@ryancosta2464]

Excellent video! Short and to the point! Will be using this as a reference again tomorrow working on mine! Wish you'd do one on changing the inner and outer tie rod ends on this foreman! As they seem to be impossible to access!

[@twintieratvworld1378]

Thanks this video is gonna help when my bearing comes in the mail

[@thomasolmstead7267]

This helps me alot thank you for your time

[@jermainephillips5179]

Good job👍 thank you.i.like to assemble with grease though even though bearings have some.just me though to help with water intrusion for the inevitable Creek crossing.

[@dads8253]

Good show! Thanks for posting!

[@ELWVMzTV-]

very well made and to the point

[@James-er6qt]

Any idea of bering and seal numbers? Or do you have to buy genuine stuff

[@marshallives658]

This isn’t the same quad but the bearing setup is basically the same, but I have a Kawasaki prairie 400 and I ordered a new bearing and axle kit from east lake but it only came with one seal for each wheel. Would I be ok just greasing the hell outa the outer one that didn’t come with the seal and leave it?

[@RipPimpCScrewstonTX]

What's a good brand of bearing? I see too many on ebay & Amazon 😅

[@1alexhawkes]

Hi, I have to ask how you hammered the top ball joint out? I hit the bottom of mine hard and hit the nut hard and it didn't budge. I can't even figure out how to hit the top one. That seems to be the most important step you left out in your video. The video was good except for that part that I couldn't do.

[@brn2ride788]

At 2:11 I show where to hit the knuckle to break the top ball joint loose, Same as hitting the knuckle to break the bottom ball joint loose

[@peteoates4858]

I wish you could added the part numbers of the bearings you bought. I ordered mine and they were wrong. Great video thank you now if I can find the right bearing part #

[@brn2ride788]

Here are the Honda part numbers. Outer seal 91256-HP0-A01 Bearing 91051-HA7-651 Inner seal 91209-HN2-003

[@peteoates4858]

Thanks your awesome!!!

[@Smalltechguy]

good explanation...thanks...I am trying to help a customer whos ATV was stolen two months after she bought it. She got the ATV back but in pieces referring to the plastic kit and the metal small brackets I guess that is what they are called. Do you know where I might find a schematic to where they might go? I've also got to replace a CV boot in the front, but first I have to clean it to see what I'm looking at. This Honda is a 2005...is there much of a difference with the panel arrangements??? Thanks in advance

[@brn2ride788]

You could look on Partzilla for parts schematics, You could also look on Google images for pictures of that particular model to see how the plastics go

[@m.b8257]

Great video, thanks.

[@OutbackOntario]

How many kms on the quad at the time?

[@michaelgrissom834]

Excellent ! 10+

[@toddweimer7976]

I’ve replaced the left bearing twice now on my 03 rubicon, once with a OEM Honda bearing and once with a All balls racing bearing, and I still have up and down play, any thoughts? Yes they were correct bearings and the cv shaft was torqued to spec and then sum, something I noticed was that the bearing went into the knuckle very easily, worn out knuckle maybe? Any ideas help, thanks

[@ryanbishop2295]

Probably a worn out knuckle. And when you say you torqued it properly and then some, that means you didn't torque it properly. Too much and it overloads the bearing.

[@bluflame4594]

What year model is this atv is it a 2013 I'm thinking about buying one from a friend if everything goes ok and was wondering if they have front brake pads I've had very bad experiences with the brake shoes on my old 97 Honda they were locked up bad

[@brn2ride788]

This was a 09 Foreman 500, yes the a 2013 will have front discs with pads

[@Michael-jz1xm]

Anybody else finding it impossible to get the snap ring out ? The pliers just keep slipping out of the holes over and over and over

[@diyguy2383]

Why didn't you grease the seals? That rubber on steel is not going to stay sealed for very long man. Been there alot on the rear axle.

[@brn2ride788]

Don’t know how I missed that, I always lube up seals. Defiantly put grease on the seal

[@joeblockley9695]

Thank you for your post

[@rebeccamclain1193]

Would it be the wheel bearing make only one tire turn and not the other

[@gregoryauthementii7242]

Sounds like tie rode lol

[@tavorislevy5476]

Hey buddy you forgot to put the snap ring back in

[@bradleywhite8814]

Wouldnt know the dorman part number for the snap ring or the honda oem number would any one ? Thanks

[@brn2ride788]

Here is the part number for the snap ring that holds the bearing in. CIRCLIP 55MM 94520-55000
