Looking for vortech mp10 bearings

Do you have it disassembled yet? Does it have a number on it?
 
There's a long thread on RC about replacing bearings. Haven't read it (never have needed to do anything to any of my drysides) but perhaps there are suggestions on what to use contained therein.
 
It can be a tricky procedure. If the screws have seized then you're, well......screwed.
 
Just found a couple new bearings I was going to use in an old mp10. Should be the right size as I read a few threads that advised what size to get.

I couldn't find those particular threads. But maybe I didn't "look right". Nothing has seized on mine. I had the whole thing apart and tried to live it but true to their name you can live sealed bearing.
 
You want my pair?

If the bearing has rubber seals, they can be removed, if you take care doing so, and replaced. Metal shields however get damaged in the process.
 
Fyi for anyone looking

Those are good sizes anyone can pick up at their local bearing distributor (Motion, Kaman, Applied, etc.). That second pic has 2 part numbers on it; both are valid but the 696ZZ is more recognizable.
