I am "restoring" my st300d. Mainly just bringing it back to life and looking clean again with no cracks so I can swim.
So I FINALLY after 5 nights of fighting the darn C clips got the outer bearings and seals out for the aluminum outer bearing flanges.
Here are the numbers, there were two different bearings and seals so im guessing someone repaired before.
Outer bearing 1: NTN 6205Z (japan)
Outer bearing 2: FAFNIR 205KDD C3
Seal 1:GARLOCK KLOZURE 63x430
Seal 2: USA 12508 C7A (only one of these so im guessing not original.)
OK So here is my question. What is the best replacement bearing and seal? I want to actually use the machine so I want the best bearing possible for a reasonable price.
Secondly, not that I have this whole set of axles disassembled,
1: how do I press the bearing off and also does the metal collar come off as well?
2: What will it cost me to upgrade to a stronger axle metal,
I will post pictures of the setup in a bit. (edit) PICTURES
The seal lip rides on the metal collar, not down on the actual axle. C clips locate and fix the bearing in the aluminum block.
