HERE'S WHAT'S LEFT OF THE RIGHT SIDE. (PIC BELOW )

IT LOOKS TO ME , THAT I CANNOT GET THE CENTER PIECE OUT OF THE HOUSING TO PUT BEARINGS IN IT ...LIKE THE SETS ON THE BLADE SITE. ???

DOES IT SUPPOSED TO COME OUT ?

IT'S EITHER FUSED IN REAL GOOD , OR I MIGHT HAVE TO GET THE WHOLE THING AGAIN .

EVERYTHING IS TRASHED ...GASKETS TOO.... (METAL PARTS & RUBBER TOO)

DO I HAVE TO GET THE WHOLE HOUSING & EVERYTHING IN IT NOW ?

THANX FOR ANY HELP ... I'M LOST ON THIS ONE.
I WANTED TO JUST GET SOME BEARINGS & GASKETS ... BUT , IT LOOKS MORE COMPLICATED THAN THAT. Rolling Eyes

I replaced the bearings on my challenger 250. The number for the bearing is 6206RS which you can get at any bearing house.
The bearings are a pressed fit into that housing so you need to pound out that old piece of bearing and press in a new bearing being carefull to push on the outside portion of the new bearing only (large socket works good). After you have the new bearings installed in the housing you need to install the bearing/housing assembly on the axle by pressing on the inside portion the new bearing only (the long axle spacer works good for that).

THANX MULLY ... THAT HELPS A LOT .
I'M GETTING SOME HELP FROM BIGE (ERIC) ... & YOU WERE WHO I WAS GOING TO ASK IN A PM EVENTUALLY.

I'M IN A BIT OF TROUBLE BEING NEW TO THIS & NOT OWNING THE RIGHT TOOLS ... (BIG SOCKETS , VICE , ETC.)

I'LL DO IT SOMEHOW & BE CAREFUL TOO .
WHEN ALL IS DONE ... WHEN DO YOU RECOMMEND I RE-GEASE THESE , OR HOW OFTEN ... I MUD RIDE A BIT & HIT DEEP HOLES "EVERYTIME" I RIDE.

I ALWAYS DUG YOUR RIDE ... KINGPIN OF THE COOLSTER, CHALLENGER , CHARGERS , ETC, Cool

MULLY ... ERIC TOLD ME NAPA SHOULD HAVE THEM .
WILL THEY ALSO GIVE ME THAT CIRCULAR PIECE OF METAL & THE RUBBER GASKETS TOO ? (OR IS THAT PART OF EVERYTHING ... DO YOU REMEMBER ? )
( REFER TO PIC ... IT'S ALL BENT UP)

I WOULD LIKE TO TAKE BOTH OF MY CHARGERS HOUSINGS & NEW BEARINGS TO MY LOCAL HONDA-YAMAHA DEALER TO PUT THEM IN ACCURATELY.... CAN I PUT EVERYTHING BACK ON THE BUGGY , IF THEY PUT THE BEARINGS IN FOR ME ? (IN THE HOUSING) OR IS THE "WHOLE BUGGY NEEDED" TO DO THIS ?

THANX,
RONE

Thanks Mully for helping CTE. This poor guy has had the worst buggy luck I have seen yet! You are the Challenger/Charger King around here, and without you who has been there done that, some of these other C/C owners would be up POOP Creek when theirs breaks down Wink

Give it up for MULLY Applause

ANY TIPS ON HOW TO GET THE OLD BEARING RING OUT OF MY HOUSING ?

I'VE BOILED IT , HAMMERED IT , PRIED IT ... I'M FRUSTRATED & STUCK .
I DON'T OWN A VICE OR ANY CUTTING TOOLS... COULD A HONDA-YAMAHA SHOP GET THIS DONE FOR A PRICE ???

GETTING BEARINGS TOMORROW.... HOWEVER , I CAN'T DO A DARN THING WITH'EM . Rolling Eyes
