    Lightbulb Help changing carrier bearings?

    If anyone could give me some advice on changing the rear carrier bearings on my cdale id sure appreciate it. Never changed any but i need to change them so i can sell the quad due to a baby on the way. Then if i can get the bearings out, do the bearings match up with any other quads (honda, yamaha ect.) so it wont be so hard to get some new ones since no one locally carries any cdale parts. Any help wold be appreciated.

    The best way to do the carrier it to put it in a vice (very loosely) and heat it with a torch until the bearing falls out, then take your new bearing that is frozen, and quickly drop it back in. Let it cool, then do the other side.

    then after its cool lightly tap the seals in

    carrier bearings are the same as a 400ex BUT there are two on each side. the seals are different though. give Blackwidow ATV a call I think he carries the original parts for the carrier bearings.
