Well I finally found out what has been causing my weird crunching sound, my sprocket side rear wheel bearing. The thing was toast, I'm guessing from the previous owners fall. Since the sprocket separated from the hub, it was pretty easy to remove the bearing and replace it. I realized I should also replace the other bearing, so have a new one on order. However, looking at the other side (disk brake side) I have no clue how I am going to get it out. I had to pound the crap out of the sprocket bearing with a large socket to get it out. There is no way I can get the socket through the wheel to do that with the other. Is there some trick that I am not thinking of, or will I have to remove all of the bearings in the middle to fit the socket in, to get the other bearing out.
For reference, page 4-10 of the 04-06 manual, #5 bearing on the left side.
Hopefully that makes sense, if not I'll try and clear it up.
