So I got the Engine back together on my 2001 250ex and it runs great but now I noticed that the rear end has ALOT of play in and out. The axle will pull out both sides about 1inches and it clicks so I assume I need all new bearings. The dust cap feel out a long time ago and I never greased it or re packed it in so I guess it’s my fault but I have a few Qs.

So first question is – what brand of bearings should I go with. I see Rocky Mountain has All Ball kits for 25 dollars but I’m not sure it will last too long for how hard I ride this thing so can someone show me on the oem parts diagram what bearings I need to order? I’d like to take it apart and put it together in the same day so I don’t want to pull it apart now.

Also, will I need any special type of puller or other tool to do this? Brakes don’t work either so I’m going to clean it out and replace what’s needed as well.

Thanks a lot guys

(I’ll have a pic of the schematic in a sec hopefully)
