Subject:Source for Sliding Door lower Guide Bearing
From:Steve Young
Date:Sat, 28 May 2011 09:58:22 -0700

Hi list,

My 84 westie had the ball race collapse on the vertical lower guide bearing that
sits at the bottom of the sliding door. Its NLA at local dealer and not I'm
finding anywhere online. Checked out skateboard bearings which can be
substituted on other part of sliding door mechanisms on later vans, visually, ID
looks about right, but OD is too small.

Anyone on the list had this problem and found a good solution?

Thanks,

Steve
