I have a pioneer 1000 with over 12000 miles i replace bearing between 700 and 1200 miles looking for a longer lasting bearings
Just don't use gas to wash them out, it cuts the finish off the bearing surfaces and will fail pretty quickly.Good to keep in mind that some greases and oils are incompatible with others. This is true of both the oils in grease as well as the thickeners. If in doubt, best to clean out all the old grease before re-greasing.

There are some good, explosion and fire reasons not to use gasoline as a solvent, but I've never heard that. The steel in bearings is not generally porous, so I can't see a problem with removing a finish. What finish would that be that could be removed with a simple solvent? Can you point me to a reputable source on this - I searched but found only one or two saying volatile solvent fire risk.Just don't use gas to wash them out, it cuts the finish off the bearing surfaces and will fail pretty quickly.
I could see where the gas would deteriorate the seals, but not the hard finish on the steel.There are some good, explosion and fire reasons not to use gasoline as a solvent, but I've never heard that.

Exactly. Assuming one is removing the plastic or rubber seals prior to cleaning, I've never heard of a problem with any common hydrocarbon based cleaning solvent.I could see where the gas would deteriorate the seals, but not the hard finish on the steel.
Timken bearings will also be my choice.I use Timken , I get them at a industrial supply
I have the same trouble. Only with the rear. Its becoming common to change them with the oil. The current ones were installed before the mom2 ride and they already have play. I've tried all balls pivot works and the oe honda part. It doesn't seem to make a difference. I've chalked it up to the load of s*** a carry with me and the beating the machine gets.Wow.
That's not common.
What and where are you running?

Do you happen to have part numbers?I use Timken , I get them at a industrial supply
I do not, I've only got 4,000 miles on mine and mine haven't gone out yet. Take a bearing with you, the industrial supply will measure them and get you what you need.Do you happen to have part numbers?
The only written review of that bearing is 1 star thumbs down. This is not to say it's not a great bearing, just that it ain't got good reviews!I wouldn't be afraid to install these.

I had great luck with all balls in the atvs. I'm probably f***ing something up.I sell 4xpro bearings and axles. So far no customer complaints on either and they seem to be good quality. I've used these and all balls on my Polaris machines in the past and both outlasted the over prices OEM bearings.

Hello All,I have alot of wheel bearings issues. what is the best wheel bearings?
Theres probably something to that. I've gotten so used to just using my best judgment that it don't get the torque wrench out often. I too used an impact or breaker bar to put the axel nut on.Hello All,
Good responses. While I have NOT had wheel bearing issues on my '19 P1K-3 I have had a number of them go bad on my automobiles. I have watched this thread for a few days and have been reluctant to share my story because...well it is just a stupid thing, read below and hopefully this will help.
Information: I am an ASE cert. master automotive mechanic, do all of my own work (well nearly all).
Story: I have an '07 Ford Edge (approaching 500K miles) and a few years back it seemed as though I was running through wheel bearings, 30,000 - 50,000 miles, they just wouldn't last! I too thought what has been discussed on this forum, bad manufacturing/material, bad batch (it does happen), lack of grease, etc.
One day while driving I heard those front wheel bearings humming again. That's it! I decided to take my time disassembling cleaning installing (press fit) and re-assembling, finally I pulled out my torque wrench and light bulb!!! in my haste previously several times, I started using my "ear and feel" from my impact gun instead of torquing properly. It's now going on 150K miles, (on Advance Auto wheel bearings) and still going strong.
Lesson: Stupid mistake on my part by NOT following each step. It's easy to be overconfident in your own craft and skill and very easy to take short cuts. I learned (re-learned) the hard way that proper torquing is an important step that I had been ignoring. That's my story, hope it helps.
