 |

Folks,
I need to order a new set of nosewheel fork bushings to go in to my soon to arrive (non-Vans) 5x5 nosewheel fork.
I understand they are listed on drawing 62 and may be called U-612....I can't find that in Vans 'list' to order. I don't have the drawing here with me. I'm also figuring that I'll destroy the bushings from my current fork if I try to remove them and re-use them.
If someone could read that number from their drawing I would appreciate it.

Ralph,
Give me the shaft size and the size of the hole that the bushing
goes into. It is a flanged "oilite" bushing. I sell a series of oilite
bushings so its not rocket science.

Hi Ralph,
I need to know the length of bushing you need. The bushings need
full support. So what ever the bushing goes into, measure the area that
the bushing is supported by the fork. Any hollow area is a non-support
area for the bushing.

Your right,it is listed as U-612 on my RV-6A plans. The specs say it is a
Simco # SF-4048-16. And like you I can not find it in Van's parts list. As
someone else said, it does look like an iolite top hat bearing. If need be
I could scan the spec drawing section with the dimensions.
Do not archive

Note: ACS has a SYMMCO SF-4048-20 listed in their web catalog that
differs only in length (1.25" v 1").
Google for SYMMCO for details.

I Googled the part number and came up with a bronze bearing & bushing supply house called American Sleeve Bearing. The URL takes you to their PDF catalog:
