LOL Thanks for the info Charlie.Mine is a 2003 Max II.I found my bearing job to be magnified at every turn by the bearing cages.One-third more work and expense and impossible to pull the axles without pulling bearing cage and all.They installed easily enough when the two outer bearings were loose in the flanges but pushing into the inner bearing stiffened them up quite a bit.Then I could move the axles in and out fairly easily but again stiffened up once the bearing flanges were torqued.The bearing flange(inner) and chain install on the left rear (muffler side) was extremely difficult as I couldn't even see the flange nut forward under the engine. I'm feeling mechanic's guilt on this flange as I was lucky to even get a socket on it once and when I did I tightened it completely before tightening the rear nut.It seems to be OK but all others I tightened each side a bit one by one.To get the socket on two extensions with a u-joint took appx. an hour.In truth I found this bearing job challenging to say the least.
LOL Charlie,I'll do my future assemblies and yours too if I can get you to drop by and do the disassembly and prep work.
