SO ABOUT THOSE TRUNNION BEARINGS . . .
Banshee has a nice exploded diagram that lists those bearings as F6900 LLU Max Enduro.
Problem is that, as best I can tell in the US looking at ABI Industries, those bearings don't exist or at least are not part of Enduro's regular catalogue. It's either:
6900 FO LLU Max, which is flanged but also offset
F6900-2RS, which I think is flanged without an offset, but I also think is not a full complement bearing and I know does not have as good a seal as an LLU.
If I remember correctly from pulling the linkage apart awhile ago, the seals on those trunnion bearings do look different than a typical MAX bearing and may very well be the 6900-2RS. I know trunnions can be hard on bearings, but the Titan seems to be really well aligned. If they are 6900-2RS, maybe some of the difference in longevity could result from a less-than-ideal bearing spec on the trunnion (assuming you want MAX bearings on a trunnion mount)?
Can anyone clear this up so we can all order our spare trunnion bearings? Am I just totally whiffing on some aspect of this? Thanks in advance!
