Do they look like this?

What about the smaller ones?

i know FAG is associated with Barden, the company that makes the smaller bearing.

it's so weird how there are so many different part numbers for these bearings and NO bearing warehouse can recognize any of them!

This is the thing, WTF is the exact part number for the bearings/seals. You know what I'm saying? Type 6206 into e-bay and there a million different kinds of 6206 FAG bearing. It's driving me crazy!!! If we can get someone who has the part number on the smaller one's we may be set. Nightcrawler, I'm pm'ing you

ok nate has confirmed that the big bearing is a FAG 6206 bearing and the one on ebay is a FAG 6206 bearing and looks exactly like the pic provided by superchargerrebuilds. so i think i'm going to buy 2 of those off ebay. now we just have to properly identify/locate the smaller Barden bearing because all the part numbers i've gotten for it have been invalid to all Barden distributors. the seals are cheap so those are whatever.

thanks for your help italynstalyn!

ok now i have a concern...i found another on ebay for the same price and it says ABEC 1. but arent these supposed to be ABEC 7 bearings inside the SC? is it the same bearing with a different speed rating? maybe that's why it's so cheap...because it might not be the right rpm rating?

nightcrawler7188

what i'm saying is it might be the right dimensions but not the right precision rating (ABEC 7)

nightcrawler7188

if you go to google and type "6206 ABEC 7" then all the bearings are upward of $130

itlynstalyn

It's because they're sealed vs. open. I think ABEC-5 is the minimum.

That would be a concern. Physically, they look exactly the same with 9 ball bearings. I don't know about the smaller pair, they are in my blower. I didn't think to get any numbers off them at the time.
