Well I broke it last night. The worn bearing housing gave up the ghost while I was cutting. Looks like the worn through area resulted in a stress concentration that fatigued. Decided to just go ahead and replace both housings and bearings. The RH housing was only $50 but the broken LH housing has been supplanted by a BushHog manufactured part and is double the price. At least I was able to cross reference and track down bearings for $14/each instead of the $50 NH wants.
