Can anyone help me. I have an 02 400EX. When I put my skid plate up on a block I can shake my axle, it's extremely loose. I have tightened up my locking nut and that still didn't help the problem. Do you think that my bearings are shot...or is there another possibility of something that could be wrong? If anyone can help out and give me some pointers, I would appreciate it. Also, how difficult is it to replace the rear bearings? Thanks.

If it's side to side play, tighten the lock nut some more. It it wobbles, then it's probably your bearings. If your bearings are that bad, then it's probably safe to say that it would be easier to just buy a new carrier with bearings.
