Your 'local bearing house' must be a lot cheaper than mine!
There are actually three bearing houses that are all within a couple of blocks of each other up here. After a few phone calls with bearing numbers for cross references or numbers that I got from this forum and online, I new which shop I was going to get the best deal from and as an added bonus I did not have to pay any shipping or handling charge!

Try looking under "Industrial Supplies", it looks like Las Cruces would be your closest source.
