I want to do some powdercoating this winter and i want to know how hard it is to get the bearings out of the front hubs and front part of the swingarm? Has anybody powdercoated the brake calipers front or rear? thanks.

well to pc brakes (calipers) you must completely gut them. Then tape off where you dont want any pc (bolt holes piston holes) stuff like that and them rebuild them when ya get them back. I just am leaving mine bare and polishing them. and when i take bearings out i put new ones on if i can with new seals. It IS cheap and makes it easier cause u dont have to take it apart a few months after ya get the quad together to replace bearings lol ;) get my drift?

what about a swingarm? I planned on replacing the front bearing in it this winter anyway.....
