Doing two or three of them
Been a while since I've split the hub to clean the tube and inside of the tire. Easy way?
Aircraft Spruce charges about $130 each for the two axle bearings. The two in the tailwheel were NICE 3021 DS deep groove. Amazon sells them for about $11 each. Alternatively, Memphis Bearing sells the 1621 DS xeep groove for about $6. Same size, has the double metal shields, is factory lifetime pre lubed, and has rotation and load specs as good or better than the 3021 DS. I'm not sure, but I think maybe $6 is a better price than $130
What's the easy way to press out and push in the replacement oilite bushing for the kingpost?
