Another solid DIY video KC. Today I am picking up a 2023 Yamaha Grizzly. I am getting rid of my Can Am. For whatever reason I didn't have a good run with it in the long run and it was having several issues. I am sure I will be looking back on these videos for info.

OMG Ruben! That’s cool, you won’t be disappointed I’m sure. I believe there’s a lot less maintenance to do on a Yamaha VS a Can-am . I hope it serves you well good luck with it my friend! Brake replacement video coming out tonight making it a little bit shorter be easier to watch. I think you’ll enjoy it. Have a great weekend buddy!

supposedly kawasaki teryx use the exact same bearing. And the koyo DAC3055W are the best (used in 550/660/700). only about $30 each. Wow that press is awesome. I might have to pull mine and lube them just so that I (hopefully) never have to replace the bearings. I need to swap out the disc guards on my 19 anyway so that I can run 12" wheels on it. Thanks for the video!

Thanks for the tip on the bearing part numbers. I’ll save that case I need to replace them again. Yeah I bet if I had packed grease in the original ones they would’ve lasted longer. I had just bought the bearing packer about a year ago. Thanks for checking out the video and appreciate the comment.

@armyuvme4 ай бұрын
This may have been said already, but packing the bearing with grease greatly decreases its life span. Only add grease to replace what's been washed away (hard to tell, I know). Adding too much grease causes balls to slide rather than turn, which in turn generates heat, then premature wear.

Very interesting video-- one of my machines has 3500 miles on it, I might have to check and make sure the bearings are smooth on it or if they are rough. That machine has seen a lot of water as well. I've heard before if you add too much grease it can push the seal out and actually do more harm than good. Is there any truth to that with these wheel bearings? I've seen those bearing packer tools for Polaris as well but I've never done it.
@kcatv9556 Жыл бұрын
Hey Rod, Yeah the bearings on the grizzly have definitely been in a lot of water. As far as too much grease hurting the seal? depends on what type of seal it is. The small seals on those bearings are just a small lip seal so the grease will come right out without damage. Thanks for checking out the video buddy!

Koyo bearings come pre greased and do not need any more grease, you just ruined the seals, once they get hot, grease will ooze out and water will seep in, they call it sealed bearings for a reason.
