anyone know where I can get cheaper idler wheels for the center of the skid. part number is 8es-47310-41-00, not sure if that part number is still good . the bearings are molded into the wheel so the bearing cannot be replaced on these wheels I called the dealer in my area and they want 73.00 dollars Canadian each for these wheels. too much imo. they are the small idler wheels that run on the inside of the track, just in front of the rear large idler wheels, hope you know which ones I mean. don't really want to use like kimpex parts.


WOW. I paid $38 a wheel from the dealer near me.
Time to find a new dealer?

Not sure what sled your putting these on but on my 06 apex I put the newer style spoked wheels with replaceable bearings. They were somewhere around 35. The older style ones with non replaceable bearings were actually more expensive. Your dealer should be able to tell you which ones fit.

Get the 'x' wheels from excell. They are slightly larger in diameter and help to reduce slider wear. Top quality wheel in my opinion. You can order them from a supplier here in ontario to save shipping costs. I paid 30 ish per wheel. pm me and i will hook you up with the suppliers name as they are not a site sponsor so I would be afraid to post here. Cheers scott

I put those spoked wheels on also, paid 20$ each from partzilla

For whatever reason the wheels with replaceable bearings are much cheaper. The dealer should give you either option. of with or without.

Go with excell wheels, they rock, high quality best out there, unless you go with billet, then you're talking big money. Excell motorsports 315-691-6916, hubbardsville NY
