Not quite. That $19.99 is 1 15/16ths and use 2 set screws. The one on
bearings.con use the locking collar.
The 2" on e-bay is the same price as bearings.com. It's similar to the
one on my LM470 that was up for a number of years. The bearing only has
some surface rust and is still as smooth as silk. OTOH, The 2" shown on
e-bay appears to have a rubber seal eith the top of the bearing flush
with the top of the casting which is important. There is one for $78.90
that has the bearing recessed. Great place for water. Nicer finish,
but... Lots of stuff available that is more rugged than the TB-3 and 4.
On both the SS variety are a bit pricey. <:-))
On bearings.com they have a really nice plastic 4 bolt frame with SS
metal. Bit expensive at over $200. <:-))
