URGENT STARTER MOTOR HELP REQUIRED

[Hoover1962]

My friend has has the 3 rollor bearings in the starter motor fail, I think they are in the rear housing ( item 4 on service manual, page 314 section 7 - 20 )
Does anyone know the size of the bearings required as the original one's have fell apart!!

Thanks

If you take both the inner and outer races to a good industial bearing supplier they will be able to measure or identify the bearings from the markings on the inner/outer races. These bearings are unlikely to be close tolerance so there is probably a standard industrial item on the shelf at factory prices.

Hope this helps.

PS These shops are also a good source for oil seals too (seals have all the identification information needed stamped into the rubber lip).
