Yeah that’s what I’m hearing, I’m going to replace them with the excel ones from barn of parts. I’m also looking for instructions for the oillite bushing kit I checked FAQ and did a quick search but came up with nothing. Also with that kit do I need the “small spindle bushing kit” from them as well or was everything included. It came with zero instructions or diagrams and I’m just learning to work on my own stuff. My dads with me helping (I’d be no where with out him) but I want to learn)Those '06 Nytros had an issue with warping idler wheels. I remember Yamaha sent out a TSB on them, I think anyway. But I remember the same thing happening on mine. At the time Yamaha replaced them with a solid plastic wheel with no rubber on the outside. Regardless .... warped idlers on an '06 Nytro is no big surprise.

Cannondale27 saved me big time with my shocks and can’t thank him enough.. Now I might have to make a 10 hour round trip drive to pick up the rest of my parts from Travis so it can finally be done!

Yup, that’s the pic I sent you, control arms are completely straight and good to go so something def happened some where down the line. Travis is sending me some more parts abs I’ll have it together by Thursday hopefully.. gotta ride next weekend as well loli can see the pics just fine.

My new spindles..
My freshly rebuilt shocks by cannondale27
All new oillite bushings
4th wheel kit
Not pictures new 2in handle bar riser, also forgot to change the oil and filter when I had the front end apart. So I have to do that and toe it in tomorrow and I’m done! Almost all parts where from Travis at barn of parts, only things I had to get from dealer was two 5in idler wheels due to some confusion on my end. Sending them and some duplicate parts back to him in the AM. Next pictures should be on the snow!
And she’s done! Also may polish the tunnel when I have it in there any advice?
