WTF? Did they change the upper bogie wheels?

[DigitalFusion]

I noticed I had a dry bearing on one of my bogie wheels. Since it was 4 bucks more to just order the entire wheel with the bearing, I pulled the trigger on it:

However, when I went to install it I noticed it was much bigger than the other wheel:

Stock was like 6-6.25" This is 7.5"


What am I missing here?

8JP-G7312-00 on the bag vs 8JP-G7312-00-00 the # on the diagram. Is that the difference?

Called my dealer. They are going to look into it but they think the parts fiche has the wrong part number listed.

The arctic cat part # is 3604-901 and that's listed as a 6.38" wheel, which matches what I have on my machine. I can't believe that Im the first one to order this part from yamaha?

I never had to get a new one. Still original bearings. But thanks for the heads up. Not to be a smartass but usually I try to bring old parts with me when getting new. Helps to have a visual and saves repeat trips. Even carbides.

Not when buying on the interweb. Everybody does not have a COMPETENT dealer in the neighborhood. I have to be my own parts guy/mechanic. Yamaha misprints and or errors seem more prevelent of late, and where the #@*? is the 2017 parts fiche?

Very true. Not sure what you are talking about as far as the fiche though. I see everything listed except most of the Sidewinder line.
