Does anyone have 6 extra ball bearings for the CV joint in the intermediate shaft? I have mine all apart, cleaned and shining, and can not find anyone locally who has the .624 bearings.

Im hoping someone has more than they needed due to a bulk deal, or someone has a local bearing house locally where they could refer me or pick them up and mail them.

Im in Greenville SC.

thanks for any help.

Jess,
Call me and I will see if I can see if our rebuilder has some for you to
replace.
I'm sure you do not want to purchase the rebuilt one we show on our web
site.

I was thinking of buying some for my CV joints and found this one

http://www.ebay.com/itm/20-5-8-Chrome-steel-bearing-balls-12-oz-/380455124823?pt=BI_Heavy_Equipment_Parts&hash=item5894e47f57

That is for 20 pieces but the seller has lots of 10, it might be a good idea to check the ball bearings when it is time to change the boots.

That is only 0.001 less than 5/8. If 0.625 will work:

Got to laugh, the guy has a picture of SEVEN balls not FIVE!

Hehehe, not easy to keep track Smile

But I think it is just to send him a mail and ask for the quantity you want and you will get it.
