Ron, one is $10 and the other is $12 and I can get you a Bosch voltage
regulator for $39. These are SKF bearings. Let me know.
Before you drop your gas tank pop the fittings for the plastic pipe that
goes from side to side out of the top of the tank and then just cut the
other two rubber lines to those plastic tank. That way you don't have
to worry about hurting your plastic tanks and you will be replacing the
rubber lines anyway right? You should.
