[QUOTE="Lakeside53, post: 450384, member: 5264"] Essentially the same bearing. You can remove the sheild, but they are metal and not quite as easy to get off as the plastic/rubber versions (some are real pain). You do have to remove the crank though, so you may as well replace the bearings. The problem was that the combustion and other crap slowly got into the bearing, but coudn't get out, so it built up against the seal (particuarly on the flywheel side). Bearings running in a slurry of carbonised grit have a limited life... Almost all I see are noisy from wear and need to be chucked anyhow. [/QUOTE]
