  • Drive axle bearing "?"

    Got the cases split and doing a complete cleaning and rebuild with the Big Bore. Today I removed the drive axle bearing (the bearing that is secured with the 51ft-lb bolt) and felt a small clicking when I rotated it. The bearing otherwise seems to be in good condition. Im wondering if some dirt fell in there when I was splitting the cases. Any one have any idea how to clean this bearing out?

    I havent seen one fo these so is it shielded or can you see the balls?
    I you can see the balls I would use some wd-40 and keep moving ansd spraying it until it goes away. IMHO
