Bender Transfer Rods

[yamaha98sx700]

Does anyone know where I can get replacement o-rings for bender transfer rods? I beleive they are silicone o-rings. What should I use for lube when I put them back together?

I also need help with lube for the wheel bearing in the rear skid. Should I use the yamaha low temp. grease, or just a good water resistant trailer wheel bearing grease? I am afraid that the trailer bearing grease won't work at low tempratures.

Thanks!

No one can help me out with this?

just call your dealer and ask. i personally would use the trailer grease in a bearing because that bearing is going to warm up with friction. i think the low temp would get to thin, but i could be wrong. some one else should chime in though.

I sent mine t0 Bender when I had them and they put them in for FREE plus lubed them. Give them a call.

Is Bender open, do they still have the same phone #? There web site is still down.

just use a good low temp and you can thoseo rings at a good parts store

So the yamaha low temp suspension grease should be good?

Low temp waterproof grease. Go get a O-ring kit from a autoparts store for 10 bucks. You can never have to many orings.

Yamaha's low temp suspension grease will work just fine for that

I tried to match up the O-Ring on with a kit at work, it is a smaller diameter cord than a standard o-ring. I could order o-rings from mc-master carr, but i would have to order large quantities. I was thinking about checking with the local Fastenal store.
