Automatic big bearing 360 ( 390-420)

I'm looking for the big bearing in 360 auto gearbox ( # 8 in part list: # 16 12 583.01).
Surprisingly, there are 2 big thin bearings in 360 and 1 big large in 390 with the same part number. ( # 16 12 583.01) # 8 for 360 , # 9 for 390.
Do you know where to find some, or have equivalent in industrial bearings ?
Thanks
Michel

Michel,
That wide bearing has the plastic cage and the thin ones have the steel cage. So are you looking for the one with the plastic cage?

Hi Marty
I'm looking for the thin one, with steel.

OK I understand now. I only have the steel cage bearing from the 420 and it measures 6.7mm wide. To wide to install 2 of them on the 360. I have only seen the wide plastic cage bearing used on the 360/390. The plastic caged bearing measures 6.5mm wide. What does your steel cage bearing measure in width?

I may have one , i bought 3 of those output shafts, ill look in my storage

I need to open the bottom end to measure the bearings. My question is also, is it easy to get these parts in a bearings shop and with what # ?

I purchase all my automatic freewheel bearings from GMNUSA. I Think the parent company is in Germany. They probably have those roller bearing. You can do a search by its size on their site

The width of one of two bearing is 5.29 ( Must be 5.25 or 5.30). Do you have the width of a plastic bearing ?
Can I replace 2 steel bearings by a plastic one ?

The plastic one measures 6.5mm wide. I haven't seen that size you have there. Maybe that was used in the military models?

I've checked parts numbers.
Gearwheels 1,4,7,10 are the same on 76 ,77,78 360 ae.
So I can remplace the 2 steel bearings by the plastic one.
Where can I get this 6.5 mm wide bearing in a shop ?

Michel, I would try GMN bearing supply. www.gmnbt.com If they can't get it maybe they could tell you who can.
