Remember changing split roller bearings on the line shafts of the overhead cranes. The inner and outer races were split to replace them in the middle of the shaft. The joint in the race was fingered together with lock collars on the outside edges. Can't imagine what they would be worth.
yea their always fun to do when there way to heck up in the ceiling.
Was on a plant in Denver when they trashed both the bearings and broke the headshaft in a 500 TPH Drag Conveyor about a 100 feet up in the air. And no I don't miss those days.
