i just acquired a 1987 trx250 r went to change frnt wheel bearings, ordered two front sets. my inner and outer bearings
on the existing wheels are different diameters, outer
bearing is larger than inner bearing in diameter, does
not appear, or maybe im wrong, that there is aftermarket
wheels or hubs on this. so, in short, i can only use the
outer bearings, need smaller ones for inner!!!!!! markings
on my hubs says L---Y, DONT KNOW IF THIS HELPS!!!
can anyone help--------------------thanks

:confused:

What's your question? Just buy what you need.

There is 2 styles of hubs - a stepped spindle shaft has different sized bearings and a tapered spindle uses a race to seperate 2 different sized bearings.

Take a look at the spindle where the tie rod bolts on.Is this a piece that is made to the spindle or does it have two bolts that attach the "ear" to the spindle.If you bought bearings that are for the 87 and they will not work,someone may have used 88-89 spindles that use different bearings.
