Question

Wheel Bearing Change Over ?

I have a 1999 Ultra and the wheel bearings are tapper bearings that have to be packed with grease and shimmed to get correct clearance. Would be nice to change over to the newer style that don't have to be greased. Does anyone know if they make a conversion kit to do this? Or what parts it takes? A lot of the older bikes could use this. Not just the baggers. Any info would be appreciated.

I had a 99 fatboy I converted, I was able to get my kit at a local indy. If Drag has them than any of your local dealers can get them for you.
