7mm anyone?

Anyone have any 7mm bearings or bushings kicking around? Found one blew up in my gearbox and need a spare till I can order in a new set. I'll have 5 spares once I install a new set lol.

got nothing

well darn, ok thanks... :S

I might be in luck, locally. Summit Power tools carries R/C cars and they use bearings of similar size to those in airsoft guns. I'll call tomorrow and see if they have any 7mm x 3mm x 7mm flanged bearings in stock.

I got a new 7mm set that just came in...I can send em post if you still need them.

Thanks, but I have a set that will be here in 2 days, but really thanks for the offer. I'll have 5 spare bearings now as backup just b4 the game. I ordered an extra tappet plate too. just in case.

Finally got my AEG back together, I have no hesitation taking a version 2 gearbox apart anymore. Replaced all the bearings, re-shimmed the gears, cleaned and re-lubed the gearbox with some "Ultra Slick" brand synthetic lube. Found some replacement o-rings at Home Hardware for the piston, seems to work really well, can feel the difference moving the piston back and forth by hand. It's a 3/4"x15/16"x3/32" in the home plumbing isle. Put in a slightly stronger spring and holy cow! It's sends bb's a sailin! WoOt!!! I did buy a new pinion gear for it but couldn't get the old one off the motor. Oh well it's easy to get the motor out if I need to.
