Specifications:

ID 6.350 mm (1/4")

OD 9.525 mm (3/8") Installation requires a 3/8" Reamer.

Do not use a 3/8" drill bit as it will drill oversize leading to an out of tolerance hole for a press fit, you must use a 3/8 reamer as this will allow the flanged bearing to be a pressed into the chassis side frames.

Chassis frames must be clamped together as a left and right matching set before reaming  out to 3/8".
