No! Installing that missing Radial Bearing is no big deal, nor is getting into it to install it... EASY JOB!!! The big deal or say the hard part of it is only if the the final unit area of the left side engine case has gotten damaged, cause then you got to split engine, & find a replacement case, that's the difficult part of the job... If it turns out to be a missing bearing & engine case hasn't been damaged, the radial bearing can be installed & oil passage can be drilled while engine is still mounted in trike...

Wildman makes it sound easy, but that is becaue he has taken his engine and all of his trike apart so many times already he knows it by heart(HEHE). Just to show you here is what he usually does when working on his engine(and he has done it many times). Alleyoop  |

Yea, I think it's the hubs that are making the noise skipping on the Axle splines. Got my fingers crossed but I think that is it.

Well bad news. The hubs didnt fix it. Looks like I will need a write up on how to drop that back end and rip apart everything. 3 day weekend Coming up, looks like I'll be busy. Sigh. Where can I order that bearing? I'd like to have one on hand. If it turns out the case is cracked, well then we will go from there.

You don't need to take engine out of trike unless the case has been damaged... Just pull the CVT cover off, drain gear oil from final unit, pull clutch, unbolt final unit cover... Look where output shaft goes through the final unit case wall & into the gear box (if it has one), where the shaft goes through final unit wall there should be a Radial Bearing, but if I'm right it isn't there, in which case there'll be a big hole where the shaft goes through the case & into gear box... If pull the other gears out, you can see all the final bearings... Look around all the bearings to see if there's any cracks or break outs in the bearing reccesses of the case... If no cracks or break outs, you're good to go... Just tap in a new bearing on the output shaft, pull the gear box off from other side, carefully open oil passage from the existing size to 1/2" diameter w/ a series of 3 or 4 drill bits... Clean out all metal chips, put everything back together fill w/ fresh gear oil & you'll be done...

cvt cover off. clutch is being a pain now. no tool for it.
Is there a way for me to get the nut off to remove the clutch without having that tool or an impact?
