How do i take of my axle and grease my berings, should I use a special type of grease , what other places should i grease? What places should i lubricate after washing my quad besides the chain?

You cant grease bearings, they are sealed. If they are bad then you have to change them.

You cant grease the axle bearings? Why did they make all the other bearings serviceable but not those? Thats dumb!

I thought you could grease them.

Everything on the new quads is completely sealed. Even the chain. You dont need to grease the chain or anything else on it. Just replace them when they go bad or they'll tear up your bearing carrier.

I disagree on not needing to lube the chain. That should be done every so often.

You don't really lube the chain, you lube the o-rings so they do not dry up and crack.

on the 400 you can and need to grease the linkage bearing, the shock bearings and most importantly the swingarm bearingalong with the pivot bolt. if you do not you will have a hard time getting you swing arm off if you break it or you want to upgrade.
