Ross, 
Just curious, Have you taken your bearings (both Spit and 356) to a bearing 
supply house. I have noticed is a big difference in what they charge verses
the "normal" parts suppliers most on the list use. I have had no problem 
with them matching any bearing or seal in their big book of cross references.
 Best part is you walk out with the parts and don't sweat if the UPS guy 
drives past your house.
