Gravely disc bearings!!!!

[TimberMcPherson]

My 625lr has done a set of bearings, I have about a half mm slack in the disc, not good. I was wondering if anyone new what bearings it required as the two on the shaft are different, the parts list tells me jack, If I take the whole thing apart to get a measurement it could be weeks before I can find the bearings, so no mr chipper, so no make the money.

Both bearings are based on a 1.5 inch shaft, length is 1 and 15/16ths (about 50.5mm) and the outside diameter of the body (which is curved) is 3 and 11/16ths. (85mm). Its the other that I need the dimentions for. Or if anyone knows who to speak to for gravely chippers that would be great.

Thanks!

Timber,
Any decent bearing Factor should be able to supply you with replacements. Otherwise, these guys own the rights to the old Gravely machines, and should be able to supply you with anything you need-

Cheers guys, most appreciated! Last time I had this problem it ate up the shaft as well, I replaced the bearings 2 years ago and wrote down the model specs but do you think I can find them? I wish I knew why it was doing bearings like this, its not due to lack of grease or foreign objects!
