Spindle talk

[Nac's22]

When looking for spindles, they are grouped in 86-87, and 88-89. What is the difference between them? And why is it so hard to find left 88-89 spindles?

[Motofool250r]

the 88-89 are lighter, and use a spindle shaft design similar to the newer years of 400ex and 450r.

you need a set? what year are you looking for i have one of every model

[Nac's22]

Looking for a set for 88-89. My actual quad is an 89.

[Motofool250r]

send me your email and when my father wakes up ill have him send some photos of a set

are you wanting the ones with straight or tapered shafts?

the difference between 88 and 89

[atv fan 28]

I thought 88-89 both used the straight shaft??

[Motofool250r]

the only tapered set i have is away at Sand Fab. so cant show pics of those but these are what we believe are 88.

89

[Motofool250r]

theres the difference 88 has a spacer inside the hub between the bearings.

otherwise they are the same really

89 has the tapered spacer between the bearings. 88 doesn't have it, that is the only difference between the hubs.
