roscoemi 245 #1 Posted October 22, 2013 I brought my single stage blower into the barn to check it out and paint the chute today. I found all the bearings needed attention and the drive sprocket was hours from losing all it's teeth, so I disassembled it and made my parts list. After looking on parts tree and evil bay, I was somewhat sick as the parts total was $360.41. I found the big bearing store on google and my total with shipping was $65. The flange bearings will be a bit smaller and need new holes drilled, but I can do that having saved $65 per bearing! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

roscoemi 245 #3 Posted October 23, 2013 This is the place I found them: http://www.thebigbearingstore.com/index.html. A couple were not displayed or were close but not quite right on their site, so I called and a very knowledgeable lady gave me numbers to look at from me describing them and they had everything including sprockets. She will try to make sure the hidden ones will now show in their online store. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
