Chuck B,

I have the bearing set #23, but need a set of seals. Can not seem to
find them around here. Is there a set depth and with to the spacer and how
about the drill bit size? Thanks

Don

Don: I been getting my seals from Jim K. The spacer comes with the set-23 bearings and has to be modified and kept with that set of bearings. I`ll check on the drill bit sizes we need and will let you know. Last set I drilled it took 6 drill bits to drill 8 holes.

Rather than trying to drill holes through the spacer just take a Dremel tool and put a shallow groove all the way around the outer face of the spacer and then cut some cross slots across the outer surface of the spacer. The groove and slots will allow grease to flow as well as holes would.

Chuck,

You're not still using those bits from HF or NH are you?

Wink

BTW: I'll be driving by the big district warehouse on the side of I-95 in South Carolina tomorrow. I think it's outside of Florance.

I'll catch up with you at Bean Station. Just a fair warning to hide the family silver......

Yes Sir I have thought of that cause it is getting harder to borrow drill bits around here.
