Specs At A Glance

Good To Know

Q: How do I know if my idler wheel bearing is bad? A: A growling or grinding noise from the skid, side-to-side wheel play, or a wheel that stops spinning freely all point to a failed bearing. Inspect all idler wheels at once since they tend to wear at similar rates.

Q: Can I replace just one idler wheel? A: Yes, replacing a single damaged wheel is fine, though matching the same 5.630 inch diameter is important to keep track tension even. If several wheels show wear, replacing the set at once saves repeat labor.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
