Goat has a limp

[JR Scout]

Does anyone have a part number for a Goat wheel bearing, or better yet, a good source? For the front wheel if it makes any difference. Sure hope gamagoat.com is only temporarily down.

FYI, Gama Goat wheel bearings are the same for all the wheels. I ordered mine from Bearings and Drives. My local store's phone number is 770-792-2922. They did not have them in stock, but they had them shipped directly to me in a couple days. The part number on my sales receipt is BRG27690/27620. Price was 74.22 each in October of 2007. Let me know if you need any more information. Good luck!

Good question! I haven't had any problems with bearings - and I have a few spares in my Gama stuff - so I have never looked into the wheel bearings. Looks like the OEM mfr was Timken - part # 11602374-2. The same part shows up on the support parts list for the M656 8X8 truck. The NSN is 3110-289-6748. As a note - someone picked up 215 sets at a GL auction in August of last year. I suspect they must be up for sale somewhere - but I didn't spot them in a quick Google search.

Thanks for the responses- this will help a lot. Trying to get it ready to go to Huntsville in June.
