Superior to Original
This was a replacement bearing for a 25 year old Bearcat Chipper. The chipper should have been built with this bearing. It is superior in every way. The addition of a greasing point would have most likely saved the old bearing. Replacement took 20 minutes.

Whew!
Super nervous about replacing both bearings on my chipper but it went better than planned.
The unit itself was slightly damaged when the bearing went out. Pounded things straight, and used washers to beef up where the bolts go through the unit housing.
But the bearings were the easy part. A bit of effort to remove, but went on clean and easy.
Cleaned and maintained the engine before remounting...Lined up the belt, and started chipping.
Cheers!

Used puller and torch heat to remove original 1 inch shaft bearings and upgraded to newer style off Bear Cat, chipper model # 70080 greasable 1 inch flush mount bearings
(Manufacturer: Crary Bear Cat
Product Number: 16234B). Works great!.
The locking collar, the rotor pulley and the bearing itself did not come off easily. The locking collar was the toughest to remove. I tried everything suggested from YouTube videos without success including WD40, Acetic acid to dissolve the \"rust bond\" between collar and shaft, two types of torches to heat and lost of banging.

It took me three days of failed YouTube attempts and one night of remembering I had pipe wrenches stored somewhere. The 2 foot long cheater bar was important also to give effortless torque. Because this was the bearing next to the motor, the whole job took about 2 hours excluding all the wasted time and effort from other \"expert\" advice.
