Dusty,
I replaced the bad front one. It is a std. alternator bearing. Why they couldn't turn the rear shaft the same is beyond me. Then I could have used two std. bearings. As it is the rear one is not standard.

Bearing Challenge
I need some bearing help. The front bearing on my Emerson motor went bad. I have replaced it. I happened to be a std. alternator bearing. Easy job to do. I thought I would replace the rear while it was open. Wrong. The shaft is 5/8in. which in the bearing world is not common. I called SS this am and...

I have had transmission fluid in mine for years. I just put new seals and bearings in and it works like new.

It is also and Adobe product. Dusty, I have seen it at the Costco near you for under $100. Sometimes way...

Don't forget the old dry ice and your wife's blow dryer. Put the shaft in a container with dry ice and heat the bearing with the blow dryer. Remember not to cook out the lubricants (most hair dryers are not hot enough). I have had a lot of success with this technique.

Tire Creep
No indications on the tires as to size. I used a fiber glass tape and the o.d. was 33 inches. I believe that would be too much expansion even for urethane. Yes there were several occasion that I left the tension for 24 hrs. never more. When I think back to when I first installed them it did not take...
