Couldn't cross reference it but was able to match it by size. Hope to have it soon.

[@farmboy30117]

Did old bearing have good numbers, most of the time they use there own numbers so you have to buy from them. i got six of them on my kuhn if your fix works i will keep it in mine.

I've got 2 acres on the ground and have about 3 more to cut.

the next time you have a inside bearing race like you had try this trick i learned from old mechinic at work, take your welder and weld a bead inch or so on race it will fall out, i told him he was full of shit, so i tried it and it works, dont know why it works you would thank it would get tighter but it draws up, damndes thing i ever seen.

[@farmboy30117]
