[Towertalk] Bearing for Prop Pitch Motor

[Mike Wetzel]

Alton,

I tried unsuccessfully to find this bearing several years ago.  Even had my
bad bearing send off to the factory with no luck, they said it was made in
something like 1943.  What you might be able to do is to bore out the
bearing race, etc.
