Description

YETI SnowMX jackshaft & driveshaft bearing tool kit.

Item notes: This YAAC1946 contains 1 each of YAAC1785 Tool, Bearing Puller Assembly and YAAC1945 Tool, Shaft Install Tool Assembly.

Inspect/Replace notes: You should inspect your bearings every 25 hours or so. Ensure the shafts can rotate as freely as possible - I suggest to get the bike on a stand, remove the Syncrodrive belt, remove the chain (or at least remove the tensioner), remove the 4 suspension shaft bolts to remove the skid and prop up the track so that it's not resting on the drivers (or at least adjust the rear axle to take all the track tension off). Push and pull on the shafts to check for any slop/play. Turn the shafts and carefully feel/listen for any roughness or notchy-ness. Visually, any rust around the seals is a sign that it has been contaminated by water.

Your standards should be high - a bearing that's still in tip-top condition will be totally tight, essentially silent, and perfectly smooth. If any bearing shows any signs of defect, you're better off replacing it rather than pushing it - it could be 50 hours away from failure, or it could be 5 hours away, and that's not a game you want to play in the backcountry! I suggest to always replace all the bearings at the same time, including the often-overlooked belt idler. The cost of the bearings themselves is low and it's not that much more work to do all 5 vs just 1. You'll get better results and more peace of mind.

Bearing life can vary, say 50-100 hours, depending on shaft alignment, suspension loads and riding intensity, whether you've managed to keep the seals relatively clean/dry, etc.

For the bearing change procedure itself, please follow the Yeti instructions closely.

Fitment notes: This part is usable on every Yeti model to date.

Important: it's not recommended that you buy Yeti parts online unless you're confident you've determined the correct part numbers for your requirements.

C3 and Yeti are sister companies operated out of the same building, therefore all Yeti parts should always be in stock! But, it's possible that some items are running low or have been phased out, in which case an order could be delayed and/or we'd follow up with you to make changes/substitutions.
