Saw a few like that, more or less, at auction sales. The last one I saw was fresh-painted silver, so can't help on id'ing it. You could check out Shoup or the loacal farm stores (find their order catalog, they only stock what sells in the area, but could order other stuff that's not on the shelf) to see what matches up. If worst comes to worse, you can replace a whole barfull at a time with some sort of universal teeth. For bearings, go to a bearing supplier (in my rural community a couple of the automotive stores are _real_ good at stocking 100's of bearing, and can order _anything_ in 2 days), they sell the same thing for 1/2 of what a dealer would, if you could find a dealer. Just bring them the old bearing, or as much of it as you have left all they need is the inner & outer dimension, & type, pretty easy to match up - most bearings have a tiny number stamped on the edge if you look real close for reference. Some manufaturers get their bearings without this stamping, so they are harder to locate from a generic bearing supplier. Silly price gouging games.... --->Paul
