[Tigers] Front wheel bearings and seals

[Steve Laifman]

Randy,

Although specifications are hard to find in Sunbeam manuals, wheel 
bearings and seals are metric standards.  Any good bearing house has the 
seals, races, bearings, and cages (if necessary) for R&R your wheel 
bearings.

These would be "readily available"

I can't find the original call-outs in any Sunbeam literature, but if 
you have yours to bring in, the ID is marked on all parts of the 
bearing.  Get your ID number from the part(s).

If you're a DIY lot's of Tiger bearings sold by: RockAuto.com -

These are in the $5.70 to $6.35 each bracket.

Other major parts suppliers also carry various brands/prices.
A bearing Supply Store is sure to have them in major brands (Timken, etc.)

_Timken_ has a pretty nice web site:

Good Luck,
