The bearings can be bought aftermarket. I just put two bearings plus one of the retainers that hold the rollers in place and it seems like the price from hesston was about $125 for all three items. It was Friday night/Saturday job and the owner had hay down and hesston dealer had all parts in stock. He was baling by Sat. pm. This was one of the tailgate rollers though. Easy to get to.
