[AT] Spam> bearing cross-reference

[Dave Ernst]

I have a bearing suppliers catalogue probably dating back into the 1950's 
that is about 6" thick. It lists most all brand bearings by size and type. I 
can cross reference to a couple of manufactures. Fafner, timken, new 
departure ect.

John, even if they don't have a cross reference for the number they can
measure the bearing and see if it matches up with anything they have access
to.
