Looking for bearing flanges

[Lane Ranger 10,968]

I have two new bearing flanges that should work on my sickle bar mower rebuild but I am looking for a source for these flanges.  
 

 

let me know if you have a source or online company that sells these.

LANE, NOTING THE RUBBER SIDE SEALS ON THOSE BEARINGS GIVES YOU THE OPPORTUNITY , TO USE A HI TEMP GREASE IN THEM , AND PREVENT A FAILURE. POCKET SCREWDRIVER AND LUCAS HEAVY DUTY GREASE , OR RED AND TACKY . REPACKED ALL OF MY RUBBER SEAL BEARINGS , NO NOISE AND NO FAILURES , PETE

Are they for this shaft?  I almost think TSC might have them I know that's where I got the bearings from.

I found a supplier and the flanges for the sickle frame box are three hole 5/16 square  that fit 205 bearings.  52MS  lots of suppliers once you have the correct part number!  The original Wheel Horse manuals listed the bearing and flanges together with a Wheel Horse bearing number.

Those bearing retainers must be different for some applications.

I recall the most common available 3/4" bearing for the snowthrowers would not fit.

The most common available 7/8" bearing retainers would fit so members were adding a bushing to get the ID down to 3/4".

 

There was a substantial cost saving doing this.

Exactly what I did.....

I did that too on my last rebuild!  That was Robert Maynard’s snowblower rebuild info posted when he redid his bearings on one.
