I got my bearings from Buffalo also however I changed it up a little bit and went with the bearings that have two set screws to the axle for the outer bearings as I've seen the lock collars break loose or just break altogether. The lock collars are more geared towards a one direction application. Buffalo doesn't stock these but they can order them. Here's the numbers if you're interested. Hope this helps.
Outer UC-207-20 R3
Inner UC-206-17
What it lacks in ground clearance it makes up for with traction.
Tbone9... Thank you. Does the set screw style eliminate the need for lock collars, or is it in addition to lock collars? Thanks.

Eliminates the lock collar all together. They'll have two set screws just like the inner bearings. Just put antisieze on the screws. We use this style bearing in industry a lot.

Regarding the set screws, would there be a need to drill dimples in the axles for the set screws? I ask because the Avenger we owned had dimples for the set screws on the sprockets. Makes sense, but unsure if it would apply to bearings. Thanks for all the help.

I didn't drill them because because we never do in industry, but definitely for the sprockets.

No problem. Keep that Max healthy so you can find more Mamoth parts. What cool hobby!

Thanks. This is exactly why I'm fixing up our Max IV, and collecting spare parts. Looking for mammoth tusks, teeth, and bones us a nice hobby. Gets us outside and riding. I prefer the Max over any quad now. More fun.
