Anyone have a source for these bearings.
They are 1 1/4 " x 9/16" x 7/16 angular contact ball bearings

Are those the bearings that cause the pinion shaft to go wobbly? If so, if you find a source, please tell us where!

But if you have a bearing number for them (usually printed on the side of the inner and outer races), look up the SKF catalog.

They would be the ones.
If yours is wobbly then re-shimming to take up the play may work. Mine has a completely seized bearing so I must find a replacement.
So far I have a 1622 which is a larger OD and not angular contact however the thrust force is not huge in the pinion.
If I can get a 1622 in angular contact I will ream the lower housing to fit.
