HI Guys. I purchased an old wagon gear to put under a chicken pen. The wheel bearings are bad, wobbles a lot. I removed one wheel and discovered what seems to be a really old style hub and bearing. Just wondering where to begin looking for parts. The hub is eight hole lugs (bolts actually). Hub has a number 690 on it and maybe an old IH stamp on it. the cylinder ball bearing number is 8678T (timken??). The hub cap is numbered with 587 WA. And the retaining washer/nut is numbered 686 W. The hub interior appears to have a split sleeve, which appears to be the problem. The bearing that slides into the sleeve us way to small or the sleeve is way to big. Must have worn down over the years. Can that sleeve be replaced? Have to be pressed out but have no idea how to find a replacement, etc. Any suggestions. Craig
