Tiller Howard Model J Bearing

[hopingtolearn]

I just picked up an old Howard Model J Rotavator.

The bearing at the chain side has completely disappeared - just a few
ball bearings left rattling around the chain casing.

Does anyone know what parts I need - I definitely need a bearing,
but assume I'll need some kind of seal in here as well.

Thanks.

We have a member who worked for Howard on the forum, he should be able to help you with any information you need. Not positive but I think his handle is Howardrotovator. Just give him a chance to respond or do a search and send him a pm.

If you can get a number off your bearing, you can probably order one here: Pillow Block Bearing Ball Bearing ATV Wheel Bearings Disc Harrow Bearing Roller Chain V-Belts Radial Ball Bearings

I can't help you with a seal though.

Received your email and have sent you a bulletin on the bearing replacement
