Title: centerlink bearing number
Post by: camelot on September 03, 2014, 07:01:54 PM
 Hello again, Does anyone have the bearing number for the centerlink on 39-75. The master parts list shows 900924. I read it is a new departure but can't cross it around here. They need more info. I cant find a website for Olcar. Thanks in advance. Alex :)

George at Olcar Bearing did have originals and a modern replacement.  I have used both and they both work fine.  This was years ago so he may just have the replacement now.  This is an early sealed bearing and they fail after all of these years.

 Thanks guys. I'll give George a call today. mine is probably original. I couldn't find a grease fitting on the arm. Makes you wonder why with the 21 other fittings it has.
