You really need to check pricing on bearing these days. I just replaced all of the bearings on my JD 230 disk. They where cheaper from JD than Motion Industry the bearing wholesaler. About thirty dollars each cheaper.
The common JD disk bearing number for 1 1/8 square bore bearing for flangetts is A20175 and they are $63.00 each.
The later bearing is a A20649 and they are just $31.48 each.
I know many on here think that I bleed green but I have found out that on bearings at least JD is many times cheaper than other suppliers. I have an older bearing guide that I can use to cross size to JD numbers. I have several friends that run MF and AC combines that we cross the bearing over when we can. The JD bearing just about always are cheaper than the Agco bearings. Now on other things JD is high too and I go else where.
As for input cost going up. I think we are just seeing the start of that. Our whole economy is based on a cheap abundant energy supply. With oil prices going sky high it will drive cost up through out the supply chain.
People need to remember that we only burn 50-60% of the petroleum as fuel. We use the rest in manufacturing as the base for many daily products.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
