Hi Ricke, I have a 600. Did you get the clutch off the engine yet?? If not, contact me at [email protected] and I can help you out. Bruce

Well, I replace the axle bearings and seals. Really not too tough, just messy. Pulled the axle out, and brought it to the dealer to have the old outer bearing and seal pulled off and the new seal and bearing pressed on. Thought it better than me trying to make a puller for this. Everything went...
