Rehabing a 24t that is in pretty good shape to start with, that comment tempered with what I have invested so far, it will bale as it sits. Noticed that the bearings on the crankshaft that the feeder fingers is on are worn. Have not pulled it apart to confirm but it looks like the crank may have worn past the bearing and into the housing, not sure how thick the bearing sleeve is, and hopefully the crank "journal" is ok. Went to JD, the parts person knows I like playing with the old stuff......we both had a good laugh when the price for a housing/bearing came up, just the bearing is not to bad. My question is would the right sized flange bearing work here. Seems like a modern bearing might be good although I know there are times when the original design can't be beat. I would suspect that stub end is a common diameter, flange mount bearings are readily available at a much lower price. Another advantage would be that if the journal is scored a flange mount ball bearing would provide the inner race for the bearing eliminating the concern on the journal. Thanks in advance.
