Idler Wheel and Bearing 5.630" for Arctic Cat Lynx 2000 2015-2017 ES LT

Idler Wheel and Bearing for Arctic Cat Lynx 2000, 2015-2017

This idler wheel and bearing assembly is a direct replacement suspension component for select Arctic Cat Lynx snowmobiles, sized at 5.630 inches for ES and LT track configurations.

Overview

This idler wheel and bearing unit replaces a worn or seized bogie wheel on Arctic Cat Lynx models from 2000 and 2015-2017. The 5.630 inch idler wheel keeps the track properly tensioned and rolling smoothly across the skid frame, reducing drag and premature slider wear. It is intended for riders and mechanics servicing ES and LT variants of the Lynx platform.

Specs At A Glance

Good To Know

Q: Does this idler wheel come with the bearing already installed? A: Yes, the bearing is pressed into the wheel hub so the assembly is ready to bolt onto the skid frame. Reuse the factory axle, spacers, and fasteners unless they show wear.

Q: How do I know if my Lynx needs a new idler wheel? A: Grinding noises, a wobbling wheel, or a track that will not hold tension often point to a failed bearing or cracked wheel. Inspect each idler during preseason service and replace any that spin rough or show heat damage.

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