Ransomes Ajax Mk4 cutter bearing

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

Hi all, 

Just wondering if anyone can recommend where to get a Cylinder Blade bearing for a Ransomes Ajax Mk4 from? new or secondhand?

The parts diagram shows the bearing "itself" as RL5? I only need the one for the drive side looking at it at the moment.

For info - I removed the bearing and housing complete, the cover is off, but the bearing is still in the housing - I assume the bearing just knocks out of the housing?

Kindest regards,

Kevin

It is a standard bearing and it also has the ID of NLJ 5/8, you should be able to obtain it from any good bearing supplier. I would also replace both of the cylinder bearings.
