Looking to see if this in normal or a problem. I was doing some general maint on a 2002 Bambardier DS650. The rear axle has up and down play. The axle spins freely and no binding or unusual noises. This movement is in the rear swing arm axle housing. I checked the web but the only post I could locate was about the 2004-2005 DS650 recall becasue of a lack of grease in the rear axle hub bearings which could cause it to fail Anyone have any ideas or knowledge with his issue.
Thanks TJ
replace your carrier bearings. common problem on any older atv. do it before they get too shot out, I've seen them so bad that the whole carrier needed to be replaced. just a little play is just a average worn bearing, you should be looking at an easy fix
Thanks
hurry up and get that thing fixed before mine breaks again! whats up tj? johnny
Parts on order relax!
Just like mine they come with 2 cone style bearings no way to add grease later.Order a set of aftermarket SEALED bearings for a Yamaha warrior.
they come 2 sealed bearings and 2 seals works like a charm

Thanks for the advice.
before my brother sold his 400 he drilled and tapped the carrier for a grease fitting in the middle, it took almost a tube of grease, but he filled that bad boy up lol.
Grease fitting wont work on this type.
The bearings are like old GM front rotor bearings on this beast. Just have to get us to the fact they need extra attention. Thanks for the info.
