Just ran the spindle again and still not happy with it.....
The problem bearings at the moment are 2 x 16004's - dimensions OD 42mm x ID 30mm x width 8mm
Decided to change them for some 6004's - dimensions OD 42mm x ID 20mm x width 12mm
Will need to do a bit of a mod to the housing and make up a new spacer for the spindle but think its worth it as they have a higher load rating than the originals.
Just rang my bearing man up and he has them in stock, apparantly they are used quite a lot for motorbike wheel bearings and he has plenty on the shelf. Price - £3.50 each for NSK's!
