Thanks for the leads guys.
That should keep me busy for a few days.
Guys at NAPA are following up with SKF ..............
My key supplier counter clerk is away all of next week enjoying his SkiDoo. I will need his help in decoding all the prefix and suffix to the 1206 bearings.
According to the military parts manual 1941 and the engraving on the bearing it is Hyatt 1206 .... no other appendages. Each letter before or after such EHAL and YM etc. denotes a particualr application and can have minor difference in dimension.
The Hyatt 1206 has a central race which is removed for the transmission application.... the OD of that insert has to be exactly 38mm to be the right dimension...... some of the 1206 by different makers have no such insert and makes it very difficult to measure..... so I carry the counters haft with me when ever I visit suppliers.
Oddly enough the 1207 is readily available.
Next step will be to contact the various Ebay sellers and ask them to verify the OD and ID of what they are listing.
Hopefully will find some and will share the info ...
Thanks all ...now to get to work.
