MessyJesse69 Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 Im replacing a bunch of bearnings on my shee. Now I already made the mistake of buying wheel bearings and hub bearings DOH! Is there a difference between the A Arm bushings and bearings? Is it an either or thing or do I need bushings and bearings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trickedcarbine Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 Bushings. There is a company that sells needle roller bearings to replace the bushings but I haven't seen them in a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind replacing the cheap plastic guys. I would be annoyed if these bearings become another seasonal expense. Also what's to keep these from walking into the arm? these sound like a good idea, but the more I think about it the more headache it sounds like.

Dlatch Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 that all sounds great. but what's the life on these? I don't mind replacing the cheap plastic guys.

Also what's to keep these from walking into the arm? these sound like a good idea, but the more I think about it the more headache it sounds like. They quote that they have a lifetime warranty so even if they were worn out after a season of use then they would replace free of charge. i have not tore down my shee yet to fit them but if you were worried they could walk down the arm spindle then you could mod the arms with small grub screws perhaps? from memory i am pretty sure my lonestar arms are machined at the ends so have a step, will take some pictures when i do the job for future reference I have the parts in my hand and quality looks great, will see how well they stand up compared to the plastic ones which only lasted a year with the quad being used around motocross tracks.

Also, Pivot works does sell a kit for the swing arm. Definitely run theirs over the generic stuff from All Balls. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RagunCajun Posted December 29, 2015 Report Share Posted December 29, 2015 Will do on the pivot works swing arm stuff. I'm waiting to order until you hear back from Rodger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickedcarbine Posted December 29, 2015 Report Share Posted December 29, 2015 Rodger says they are designed for OEM style/fit replacement bushings, so as long as pivot works says they are a direct fit to use instead of bushings you should be good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
