REAR BEARINGS NEEDED FOR CHARGER 250

Posts: 93

The best way I know to get the bearing out is to weld a bead on the inside of the race. this will make it shrink and it will come out easier. I know this only helps if you can find a welder but it does work.

GOOD IDEA G RAY ... BUT , I PAID $53 .00 TO A MUFFLER SHOP THAT HAD A GUY GET OUT THE OLD & PUT IN THE NEW.
IT TOOK HIM A LITTLE WHILE TO DO IT .

I GOT SOME MARINE GRADE HIGH TEMP GREASE & GREASED THE BEARINGS .

I ALSO PUT A THIN LINE OF "DAP " AUTO/MARINE SILICONE INSIDE THE HOUSING IN THE SPACE BETWEEN THE HOUSING & THE SEALED PART OF THE BEARING . (JUST FOR SOME ADDED PROTECTION )
ONLY ONE SIDE OF THE BEARINGS WERE SEALED.

I ALSO PUT A TINY LINE OF SILICONE ON THE THIN PLATE THAT COVERS THE HOUSING . ( I WAS VERY CAREFUL NOT TO PUT ON TOO MUCH ... SO IT WOULD NOT PRESS INTO WHERE THE BEARINGS WERE)
IT MOSTLY PRESSED OUT ... ON THE EDGES .
( JUST A LIL' MORE PROTECTION)

I ALSO GOT PRETTY THICK O-RINGS (RUBBER CIRCULAR THINGS )THAT SNUG UP ON THE PLATE , UP TO THE BEARING INNER RING.

I PUT ALL BACK TOGETHER & CRUISED AROUND FOR A BIT ... ALL IS GOOD .
I THINK I'M SOON TO FIX FRONT BEARINGS ... GOT SOME MOVEMENT. Shocked

I DON'T WANNA GO THROUGH THAT AGAIN FOR A WHILE ... JEEZ. Rolling Eyes

BUT ... HAS TO BE DONE RIGHT ? Wink

i'm glad you got it going but i'm sorry to here you had to pay $53.00 to knock 2 bearing out and put 2 new back in
hope you are not mad at me for suggesting that in another post
i just didn't think it would cost that much.
