Les,
The bearings came out of my uprights, and I'm sure they are used. I bought
some replacement SKF bearings and will convert to double roller inner
bearings.

Les,
The bearings came out of my uprights, and I'm sure they are used. I
bought some replacement SKF bearings and will convert to double roller
inner bearings.

A A A I would not use these as they are rather ancient even if new.
Sealed bearings do have a shelf life as the grease breaks down over
time when they sit.A
A A A Find and order some FAG brand bearings and youall be fine. A

All,
I'm rebuilding my uprights and have found RIV outer, sealed bearings.A
Can anyone comment on these? Doing some minor research, I found that
RIV is supposedly an offshoot of Fiat and the bearings were made in
Italy. However, these bearings I found have "France" on them and feel
good when I spin them. A local bearing supply said they were odd and
probably no longer made. They also said the quality is unknown unless
the bearing can be spun up and tested.
