You have to be very careful with pillow bloic bearings when replacing the bearing itself. Aisian bearings generally have the grease hole in a different location than our standard blocks and therefore can't normally be lubed once installed. I have used a die grinder in an emergency to provide a pathway but not what I like to do.</div><div class="ydpbea85559yahoo-style-wrap" style="font-family:Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:13px;" dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">David</div><div class="ydpbea85559yahoo-style-wrap" style="font-family:Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:13px;">

<p>Just a note FYI, there are pillow blocks that use a flat OD
bearing as they are not self aligning pillow blocks. Self align
blocks are higher priced.. The bearing holder in the case of a
PTO shaft is really a trunnion mount if we want to be technically
accurate.<br clear="none">

available at several online outlets but only NAPA could
get it locally. We used to have a Bearings

<p>Spencer, I don't want to brag, but I think I have
one or 2 of those in my bearing stash. Back in
the 90's when Bailey's had a lot of cheap bearings
I ordered about $2000 worth of bearings to have in
case something broke. Now the problem is just
finding them.... <br clear="none">
