Is it possible to grease the inner bearings on a Max IV without moving the sprockets to the side? I am not able to get on the fitting with my grease gun. |

Eddie, All of the inner bearing grease fittings on my 2003 Max iv are reachable. What year is yours and what axle are you having trouble with? W.Philip |

its is a 2000. I just got this great condition Max IV with ROPS and 26" tires 18 briggs for $2000. I had it shipped to me. Got it home. The tranmission was messed up. After buying 4 brake bands, replacing one brake drum, replacing the throttle cable, 4 bearings, four sprockets, replacing the plywood in the seat backs, sandblasting and painting the wheels. Im about to get it going. I guess if noone else has tried it I will let you know how the Krylon Fusion paint holds up. Being a military jeep collector I just had to camo it. If it holds up it looks also. Thanks For the info on the NAPA part sounds like just what I need. Eddie |
