Hello, I have a question on bearing play. How much is too much? I was doing my seasonal full service ( my hdi gets most of the use) and noticed that the bearings have about 1/16 max to 1/32 of an inch play. But when I grease I can't hardly fill any play? How much is normal? I know my hdi has zero play but that's a diff type of bearing.
They will go for a while yet. I will run mine like that sometimes, but just be prepared to change a bearing on the trail if needed.
If you can't take the play out with a few shots of grease, then you're starting to push it, lol.
I just went through my Conquests last weekend. One of them has 3 outer, Mid Axle bearings just the way you describe yours. I greased them up, and threw the tracks on, they will be fine for a while, but don't be suprised if you see me post a vid of myself changing bearings in the middle of a swamp somewhere in the next few months, lol.
Bummer
