Re: Live axel on kit skyways?

Good idea. In fact, here are some bearings that would work for this:

Mcmaster parts:
6383K14 -- 1/4" ID, 7/8" OD, 1/4" wide
6383K15 -- 5/16" ID, 7/8" OD, 1/4" wide

Your standard, open ball bearings, less than 4 bucks each.
Just tap out the old bearings, and hammer in the new ones.

Madison - while the 8" skyways are always 3/8" sealed plain bearing wheels, you can order the 6" skyways with either 5/16" flanged bearings or 3/8" plain bearings. Our 2005 and 2006 both use 6" skyways with plain 3/8" bearings.
