Dave sykes 2 #1 Posted October 2, 2014 Hi I have an old 79 uni drive transmission with worn out main bearings. I live in France and am having great trouble getting inch and a half internal by two and a half external by half inch races. The European dealers dont have stock , and bearing companys don't seem to be able to help. I called several specialists in the states but to no avail. Any ideas please guys Thank you in advance Dave Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmaynard 15,631 #2 Posted October 2, 2014 They are no longer available. The only solution is the find good used ones, or do some machining as described in several threads here on the forum. I have seen many used ones on eBay from time to time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,882 #3 Posted October 2, 2014 Mike (racinfool40) sells used sets of the #1533 bearing and he does ship over seas. Send him a PM. BTW...welcome to Red Square. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dave sykes 2 #4 Posted October 3, 2014 Thank you very much guys. That is a great help. I can get 2 5/8 od here in france , so it will be easier for me to get the chap in the village to bore the castings. Once again thanks for your help, Dave 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jrc0528 20 #5 Posted October 3, 2014 Double-check the width of the bearings as well. IIRC, the 2-5/8 OD bearigns were a slightly different width then the WH1533s. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
