Hi all, I just subscribed to the forum and so far it appears excellent! I was wondering if anyone knows the spindle bearing manufacturers number/code for the Colt 8? I know the Rover part# is A07744 but need the actual number e.g. "6203-2RS". Regards Stewart

Most bearings have this info inscribe on the edge the bearing outer cup (race or bearing ring). Don't seem to any fix name for the part of the bearing assembly different companies call it differently. This is how I go about replacing bearings.

Now tapered bearing sets are mark slightly differently as the cup and bearing have separate numbers but are sold as a set but generally marked in the same way.

Here is a link to the bearing CLICK HERE

Thank you AVB. Problem is spindle has not been dismantled yet and I work work away from home,returning weekends, so do not have access to spindle or bearings at the moments,so I was trying to source from my bearing supply at work but did not know the actual bearing number only the manufacturers part#. Regards Stewart

Hi Bruce, Apologies for posting to you direct. I thought I was posting generally for support. Regards Stewart

Stewart, If you referring to the last part Bruce's post that is his tagline requesting that folks don't send him private messages asing for help.

And I understand what you mean. I haven't ever seen any of the Aussie equipment so have no experience except some of the engines primarily the Briggs. Here on my side of the Big Pond it is also hard to get info like you are requesting even the stateside equipment. Most techs are just too lazy to research the info but being a shop owner and tech I need to know so I can stock or get the generic bearings.

I even have problem getting Briggs to tell me what size reamer I need to finish a valve bushing that is small than the standard 1/4" reamer in their repair tool kit which a shame as they should know and be able to provide the info.

I have sent you a PM regarding the bearing supplier in the USA that you can use.
