Bearings

Enter a word or two to search the forum section and click the Search Forum button.

In relation to an old Qualcast Panther from 1957 can anyone give me the spec for the bearings that fit on the blade roller. I have tried a set of bicycle bearings standard cage design and also a better set from simply bearings but  both sets push the front end out of alignment. The original bearings were replaced a long time ago so I cannot see how they would have looked fitted on the cones.

Thanks

There was a Push Panther, an Electric Panther and a Power Panther. Which do you have.

Some  images of the old races and cones will help.

It is the old manual push mower. I have now tried a combination of bearings and that seems to work but it is not perfect. By the by anyone know where I could get the half inch screws that hold the chain guard on.

thanks
