Hi,

I posted before about the bearings in my vacuum. I now have pics
also. I almost bought a new vacuum, but thought I would give the
repair one more try.

what make and model?
The fact that the motor's bearings died before you had even one brush
replacement sounds like it is an electrolux. If that's the case, you should
just junk it unless you have a special attachment to french garbage.
