<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Anthony,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>The NTN number is 6904LU. The bearing supplier closest to
me wants 42.00 each. Tower sells it packaged as the O.S. 1.4 EFI replacement
part for 26.00 each. Same number, same manufacturer (NTN) - go figure. All I
know is they work, easily last a whole season plus and let me concentrate on
flying instead of engines - the very reason I went back to 2-strokes in the
first place. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV>Does anyone know the NTN part number for the OS 140 RX SS bearing set. I
work for the second largest bearing distributor in North America and could get
them for 2% above cost if I had the part number. Otherwise I have to take mine
out and mic it. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>We also distribute some very cool linear motion items that, if
lighter, would be great in a pattern plane. We have a SS shaft,
which I suppose could be carbon fiber, that runs through a long cylinder
containing ball bearings in a serpentine arrangement. It guarantees precise
linear motion with almost no friction whatsoever. If the cylinder were 30 feet
long, a small push would send the shaft all the way to the other end. If I
were more industrious, or had the time, I would take it home and rework it to
make it lighter. <BR><BR><B><I>Ron Van Putte
