I am wondering if anyone has the 'REAL WORLD' part number for SBL part: PT442FH1
These are the ball bearings on which the 4 step flat belt pulley rides down inside the foot (directly above the motor) of the 16" SBL.
Getting at these things is a real PITB...even changing the 4 drive v-belts requires major 'take it aparts'.
One of them on my SLB started making a racket last night and I guess it is time to replace them both...considering that they are older than I am.
Don't mind paying SBL for them if they are 'really special'...but I really doubt that they are. Just getting in there to measure it virtually impossible without taking everything apart - and for now the lathe is still running...
It's going to take 6 hands to get the motor and this shaft out, so while I have people here helping me, I would rather make the change and
put it back together instead of measuring and ordering and having friends come back another day.
