The inner (tripod) joint on one of the drive shafts on my buggy is fecked as one of the bearings has disintegrated

Its got to be the same as something else but I'm having trouble finding suppliers who might be able to identify it for me.. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Cheers!

I don't really know what one is but can the bearing be replaced? If so these people were highly rated on bike forums many moons ago.

If not they might be able to point you in the right direction.

So will a new bearing be a fix? Don't need a whole new joint?

There is a search option on that site for bore, width and diameter that will then give you options etc.. but as for the rest your on your own. I havn't a clue
