i'm getting different stories on how many needle bearings are in the wrist pin bearing. 02 mxz700 renegade. after dropping some of the bearings and not sure if any fell into crankcase(yes it was covered) we started counting. we put it back together and weree able to put in 27, but i hear there is 28. there's no way we could have put in another. could theis be aftermarket? i bought this sled used. fished around the crank with a magnet and didn't find any. anybody know?
Where I sled: Mostly in the U.P. But anywhere I can

My 02 600 had 28. Do yourself a favor and put in a caged bearing. The part no. for my 600 was 420-832-442. Check with your dealer to see if it's the same for the 700 also. Good luck.
you're all right.....28. we reassembled with the wrist pin in (again) and this time we got 28 in. thanks for the help. I'm also borrowing a cageless bearing tool for the instal.
skidude.. i've already ordered the parts, hope i get a caged bearing. suppose to be here today but a screwup caused delay, should be here thursday.
