Which bearing do you need commander? Five speed transmissions have bearings that can be difficult to find. Some are not readily available from a local bearing supplier.

These guys are far awway in France.
They had every bearing and seal used in the EV final drive.


The bearings were SKF Explorer series (as I requested) except for the oddball needle which they matched to OEM brand.
Seals were Viton (as I requested).
Pricing (with shipping) was about half of any other supplier I tried.
They have a USA phone number that is manned by friendly and helpful people who know their product and are efficient communicators.
Purchase was seamless with a Visa card.
Delivery was 5 days from my phone call!!

No Surprises, just a well run business!
They have become my first stop for bearings (unless the need is immediate).

I've bought from them twice now also. All of the bearings for a 4 spd. transmission are ~ $100 shipped. However, the bearings for a 5 spd. are much less "common" and so cost considerably more. I put all 6 of the bearings needed for a 5 spd. in my cart and the total before shipping is $355.
