I am working on a project to convert my L13 into an airshow bird for static display. I need the bearings that run in the flap tracks and the rod end bearings for the flaps/aileron control rods at the flying surface end...




What I'd do is measure the ID, OD, and width of the bearings, and then look them up using the bearing search tool on www.VXB.com. The dimensions will most likely be integer millimeters.



Thanks, Bob K.


Another good source of bearing data is SKF. (www.skf.com) It's nice that they provide CAD drawing files of their bearings. Both metric and inch bearings are available.
