Thanks to Old Volks Home for part # 251 843 419 I plan to order bearing from Brickwerks. They don't ship outside Europe so I'll ship to my sister in UK. Bearings are bit less than $30 US. If others are interested I can arrange to get some extras, share shipping costs to Canada and cost shipping from Canada to your address plus price of bearing.
Pmail me if interested. Steve

If necessary you can always press or shrink a ring onto the outside of a bearing to get the correct O.D. I and others on the list as well as your local machine shop can do this sort of thing.
