I bought my last front wheel bearings from Les at Russells. From memory they were 50 quid each??. He gets them made in UK and I think he said the next batch might be dearer? Worth a call? Ron

Patrick is spot on with his description there Bryon, But my way of looking at it is that if you can machine the spacers to suit the metric bearings, then they will always be available and much much cheaper than the originals,

My only concern with taking off 34.25 thou per spacer or bearing carrier (whatever is the correct description) was that next time you are knocking out the bearing cup the spacers might buckle.

I didn't measure the width of the spacer, so maybe taking off some metal will not cause any problems.

I've run the metric bearings for years with spacers made to the appropriate width...

There are no particular issues when fitting replacements....Ian
