I would say the bearings and the gasket. Make sure you get a quality bearing like a SKF or NTN and not the Black Diamond kit with the Chinese bearings. I spent lots of time Googling this topic and figuring out the right bearing to buy before I ordered. There is lots of info out there so have fun researching. My sled is a 2011 so there are differences. Since you don't have anything nearby you might be able to wait until spring and rip it apart so you have no downtime. Everything will probably be OK inside but you won't know until you crack open the case.
I might be wrong but I believe '06 still had good bearings in it. I think '09 and up is when they went with the cheapy bearings. 4000 miles you might want to just do all bearings and seals and be done with it. Around a 100 bucks from BDX for everything. Check the planetary gear set closely for signs of wear/overheating.
Diamond Drive
I bought all mine on E Bay.Or go to Black Diamond Xtreme web site. Make sure you get the right stuff 07 bearings are diffrent. Need bearing press if you change the bearings. I would recommend it.
Black Diamond Xtreme Diamond Drive Bearing Kit 50027 around $65.00
Diamond Drive Black Diamond Xtreme Seal Kit 50041 around 15.00
3oz Diamond Drive Oil
Cant belive you never had it apart yet. I have 7000 miles tore it apart every year did the bearing at around 3500 miles. This time when I opened it up a small bearing let go ball bearings all inside, but didn't ruin nothing lucked out.
Just did it myself you need a seal kit, bearing kit, 3 oz of diamond drive oil. Also a gasket or gasket sealer.700crossfire snowpro, if it makes a difference .
