YM336D 4WD Stub axle bearings

[R Barger]

I am getting ready to replace the stub axle bearings on the left front of my YM336D. The question I have is should the seals on the 6211-2RS bearing be remove to allow the 90W to get to the bearing or just leave it sealed? The old bearings look and feel good but have some lost motion in them.

Just my opinion, I would remove the seals, those bearings will be flooded. The top spindle bearing will not. I did leave the seals on that one on my old 2002D. :2cents:

Thanks for your reply Winston. That was my thought also. Just needed someone to agree with me.

Changed the bearings today and the problem was easy to see. This is the inner race for the inner bearing.
