Neck Beraings

[phatchopper300]

Any special tools needed to change out neck bearings or greese them. What's the p/n's for the neck bearings? I am going to change out wheel bearings and if I keep this up just go ahead and change fork oil. Damn you would think its winter already with this list of to do's.

Thanks Billy- Would you happen to have a part number and where did you get them or did you just call up a BD dealer to get them. Thanks again

LDO posted a thread on here a while ago on a simple tool he made to install the next races. I think it's in the How To section. He gave it to me and I was just looking at it today. Easy to make or buy the parts for there is nothing to make actually.

mine were good as new...just not much grease...i packed them with some good waterproof grease since there are no seals

Here you go Bro. Just a 3/4 bolt and some fender washers. Easy to make and will ensure the races go in straight. Get a bolt just a bit longer than the neck of your frame ensuring you have enough threads to seat the races. Hope this helps you out. :2thumbs:

There is another How To on how to remove the races in that section of the forum.
