oDay 322 Cutlass bearing?

[PatTormey]

I prolly need to replace the Cutlass bearing in my 322 oDay as it's got a little play. But I don't know how to order a replacement.

Anybody got any leads on how to buy a Cutlass bearing for an oDay 322?

Thanks

Need to measure the shaft diameter, the strut ID and the strut length.

Then check someplace like a Defender.com and match up the specs.

I THINK this is what I bought for my O'Day 322.

Check the specs. It's supposed to have a little play. I forget how much. It's a water lubricated bearing.

I checked my notes....I did use the "bloater" (the different sizes have these strange names).

Here is a video I made when I changed mine....

Great advice and video!
And I'll check the specs for the tolerance before I start.
Thanks
