Machinist needed

Not sure where would be best to post this, but I'll try here. I need a few spacer rings made up to help me fit some wheel bearings for a wheel swap. I have the necessary dimensions. Aluminum would be fine. I don't have a local place so I thought I'd try here.

Thanks

Mike

Mike, Not sure this will be applicable for you, But I've done wheel swaps where different dia axles were used, & I simply cross-referenced bearings by dia,(ALA napa's bearing books) Much easier than machining carriors,& easier on my mind...luck g

I got a little discouraged with that because when I called All Balls Racing (they specialize in bearings)they guy that I spoke was looking in bearing books for me, but didn't see anything in conventional/common sizes. If I get spacers I can use the bearings that I have and replacing the will be easy later....but if I did find something drop-in that would be great too. I still have to get the wheels powdercoated, so I'm not in a total rush.

FWIW I need

Is that 47mmx15mmx13mmthickness and 52mmx17mmx14mmthickness. I have a lathe and could make them for you. May take me a few days to find some material. All it would cost you is the material cost and shipping. Wouldnt take long to turn them. Are they just solid round and no walls or releifs?
