So i have been looking for some bearings for my shelfer RC10, I finally found some, I have to sell my house and all my cars but they are some nice bearings $85,000 each

[Charlie don't surf]

Outdrive bearings are very important though

Too cheap to pop for ceramic bearings I see.

I can't afford those. Do they make nylon bushings in that size?

I used to make bearings like that at my old job.

lmao, Id hate to see the price of a ceramic bearing that size lol.

I know they make them, We have a 60" diameter bronze bushing in one of our lathes, I think it has an ID of around 30" for the spindle.

I used to make bearings like that at my old job.

What company did you used to work for? We buy lots of bearings in all sizes, This is not the largest we use, Just the largest i could find with a quick walk through the plant

I used to work at Timken in Keene, N.H. Sometimes they sent me to the Lebanon, N.H. plant during slow times. In Lebanon, they make bearings up to 4 feet tall.

Cool, We buy a lot of Timken bearings, We also use SKF, FAG, and a few others.

My old is new build will apparently require a lot capital investment.

I work for a roll covering company, We put Poly, Composite and Rubber covers on rollers, The rolls range from 500# to 140,000# and up to 72" diameter and 400" length, The bearing in the picture is for a roll that is 90,000#

No idea what you just said. I was thinking sleeves for paint rollers, but I don't know of any 90,000# paint rollers. What is that for? It's quite a bearing.
