Ken , and Larry, I remember awhile back one you dropped me an email for a company that specializes in bearing replacements. Can you please leave that number here again? I cannot for the life of me track it down. Your help is greatly appreciated.

Walker Turner had an insidious habit of using odd sized bearings in some machines.  This company can help you out with some of the special WT requirements.  I suggest trying Accurate Bearing first to see if they can provide the size you need.

Ray,

Delta was also guilty of using what are now days odd size bearings in some machines. I suppose most of the machine makers were. What was a common size back then, is no longer so.

Using odd sized parts used to be common with a lot of manufacturers, it's a good way to keep you buying parts from them. Catapiller used to be notorius for this right down to things like o-rings even.
