Hi,
does anyone out there know if the 2 middle gearbox bearings are available new?
otherwise is there a substitute/replacement?
im just in the process of going over the gearbox in the race car. im going to replace the easily available bearings and figure if i can i may as well do them all if possible.

any suggestions, pointers or advice would be great.

what do the racers out there do?

cheers

Ben

Those are normal ball bearings or are they roller-bearings? If you can give me the sizes i can look for an industrial alternative...

But to be honest; i think they're not that hard to get. :P

they are a ball bearing.
im going to try my local bearing supplier tomorrow, but have been led to believe they are almost impossible to come by, and any around are very expensive..
ill get some part numbers aswell in case anyone has a cross reference from something else.

who knows what tomorrows digging will find.

thanks
