Fafnir GN 107 KRRB and SKF YAR 207-107 both have a 3.14 OD, but
different shaft locking arrangements, and perhaps different seals.


Some mfrs call them adapter bearings or wide inner ring bearings.


Are these two bearings for 1 7/16 shaft? By chance do you have an
online link to a drawing of them?


Yes, both are 1-7/16 shaft. I looked them up the old fashioned way,
but I'm sure pdfs of the catalogs are online.

The b-in-l has a similar stalk chopper he uses once in awhile, leaves
it out in the weather so bearings are a continual problem. Last batch
he got, he ordered from an outfit in Chicago, were Fafnir and inch.
Usually he buggers up the mounts getting them off, so he's been
ordering the works, not just the spherical bearing. He WAS ordering
them out of South Bend, but that outfit jacked up the price to nearly
$100@. The Chicago outfit was a lot cheaper. even with shipping. I
found the outfit for him with google and the part number.

I got clipped for $90 this morning. Plus the cost of driving 120
miles. I had never seen this before, there's a little pin that goes
down the grease zirk hole to keep the bearing from turning. So, I had
to fabricate this.

Main job was filing and filing to get the bearing and pulley to slide
back on easily. I had got the shaft so hot that it deformed and parts
of it hardened so the file skated on the shaft. Took careful work with
the side grinder here.

Plus, I finished breaking my gear puller. I hit it as hard as I could
with a 12 lb. hammer while the assembly was red hot. That with the
puller as tight as it would go on my 3/4 impact.

I need a heavier duty puller. Is there such a thing as a puller that
would hook up to my porta power hydraulic pump?
