[NSRCA-discussion] Bargain on OS 140RX stainless rear bearings

[Verne Koester]

Yes, I did miss the original. I thought he was just trying to locate one 
anywhere he could find it. The Toolparts price is especially sweet in 
consideration of the $41.00 I was quoted at the local bearing house a few 
years back!

>>David,
>>Here's your bearing. Tower has them in stock. They originally came in the 
>>OS
>>1.4 EFI. Tower has always had it listed as the rear bearing for the OS 1.4
>>CFI. Obviously a typo where someone replaced the "E" in EFI with a "C".
>>Makes it tough to search for it on their site, but here's the link and
