I was asked by my fiance if I wanted to live in the garage,lol.

Thanks fellow members for all your help. :yam:

Hell Yea, It at least gives a world of confidence that it wont be you sitting on the side of the trail. Maintance pays off in the long haul. My father tells me that im a perfectionist, but hey its all good. I have 18in of snow right now so cant wait for the weekend!!!

My opinion on that one bearing is, if you have the track out change the bearing. It gets so much abuse from the snow, and you need to take it off anyway. Do you know how many miles since it was done?
 
No idea on how many miles. Why do I have to take the bearing off? I've changed tracks on many Polaris and never has to take off that bearing. Normally I can pull the speedo housing under the clutch, take off chaincase cover, remove bottom gear, and I have always slid the shaft first towards clutch side and it cones out if the chaincase, then driveshaft comes out.

Different on a yamaha?? Also how much is the bearing? Anyone got an oem part number for me?
