Welcome to the forum, I hope you find much beneficial info here. Suggest that you become a member as it gives you access to much more information and will probably prove to be a very useful expense! When/if you do join, please edit your signature with info on your TM and TV, as it will help us when discussing things you might be interested in.

Not wishing to stir up anything, but the above quote jumped out at me. This is at least 15 mph faster than most anyone will recommend, not for the bearings but for the tires. Besides being illegal in most states, most of the tires are just not rated for those speeds. Do a search on "tire failure" and you might see what I mean. If you blow a tire there is a very good chance you will do major damage to your TM. I will rarely go over 60. Is there a reason you are driving so fast?
