I feel your pain. I went through two sets in 18,000 miles. I broke down and bought the 2010 wheel two months ago. I see from your profile you changed them out at 11K miles, how many miles did you get on this set? |

I've got bearings and a spacer new in box in the garage in Lebanon Ohio, about 90 minutes away. Not great, but very doable. Hopefully Farrows can help you out, or F&S in Dayton, or maybe the Piqua dealer. There is Power Keg HD in Mason, but they have never stocked anything I needed. If I'm your best option, send me an email... I think CeeJay is closer though. |

oi sorry for not posting earlier....630am comes around I calls Mark (Wolferidge) Me: Uh, Mark...sorry looks like i might be holding ya up a bit, need a tow to the dealer Mark: what happened? Me: pulled in and found rear wheel bearing puking out balls Mark: no need for that! I'm bringing the trailer and you're coming to my place! 90 minutes later, we're headed out thanks to Mark ...we swap out my toasted rear for his spare (new rubber, bearings) .... ain't Badwebbers cool? meeting all kinds of badweb celebs here |

Great job Wolf, way to represent! Ohio may not have mountains or oceans, but we have spare parts. |

There and PA. I rescued a broken down Froggy for the same reason. Kudo's to XB9er for lending his XB's rear wheel combo to the Frogmeister for the weekend. |
