    I failed to find this in a search.


    Can anyone tell me where you're getting wheel spacers from? Mine on my '12 WR300 are needing replaced in a bad way. Do you have to go direct from Husky, or are there aftermarket ones available? I haven't seen any yet, and really prefer to replace them when I put new wheel bearings in. I didn't last time, now 20-30 hours later I've got some bad wobble and the bearings are still tight.

    If you are trying to solve a problem, that's one thing, but don't replace them if they are just "grooved"... I was all worried about mine because they were grooved. I bought a full new set, and less than 10 hours later, they were grooved again. I'm convinced this is just the way it is...

    I'd be happy if they were just grooved =] The wear on them is pretty obvious, and a lot of grit getting behind the seals and speeding it up. Pretty likely that the bearings might be past the tipping point as well.

    Just got mine from Enduro Engineering. Their bearing kit comes with new spacers. When I bought the bike they were WAY past just beinged grooved.

    yes

    I can't understand how the spacers could be worn in a way to cause the wheel to wobble unless the axle nut is loose??

    That's easy. Me typing without thinking :thinking: Wheel spacers are shot. So, I guess my bearings took in all the grit already and are toast.
