Thank You guys that was perfect, I knew I could count on you. I was down by one of my old building foundations and there is an old upright compressor tanks laying on the ground. I saw it when I bought the place and knew what it was but took a closer look at it yesterday. seems somebody filled it with cement LOL imagine that. There is a torch cut in the middle of it so I could see inside. Looks like a perfect Lawn roller to me. It is about 6 feet long. I'll pull it out this weekend for a closer inspection

I've not bought any bearings online, but the most popular and well known bearing supplier where I've lived has been Purvis Bearing. Maybe I've just been lucky, but I've never been in one of their stores looking for a bearing without finding the one I needed.

Most farm equipment dealers around here can supply bearings, and in a nearby city are at least 3 industrial wholesalers that have most of it on shelf.

Timber, if you need any expert advice on bearing selection just ask. My brother works at SKF (the bearing company) in Hanover, PA. He has daily access to all the engineers and cross reference material and I would be happy to pass along any questions you may have.

Thank you very much. The only concern I have is I will be pulling the wt. of the roller at the bearing. I don't think it will be much of a problem as this is a rolling wt. The pillow block seems to be the easiest choice to work with

They will probably hold up fine. If you are getting the greasable type (suggested) you might consider installing auto greasers on them. A lot of my lubricant customers use auto greasers made by Trico. This model would be perfect for pillow block bearings.
