I know the feeling from the borrowers side of the fence.
Had done some work with the neighbors tractor and just driving out the driveway, the front wheel went anigoggling.
Checked it out and the wheel bearings had totally failed.
Pulled it to the side (shared driveway) using the brakes to steer and went for a Coleman.
Got it all apart and next day in town went to the bearing outfit and got bearings luckily a direct reference set with o0td having to pay the dealer only sourcing prices.
Get home break out the Coleman, bearing grease and a stool.
An hour later it was all fixed and ready to go.
LUCKILY it was something simple and chap.
Speaking of dealer premium . . .
Year ago I built a brass tumbler using 2 Fafnir pillow block bearings.
Later when I was in their plant I mentioned how pricey they seemed to be . . .
My escort laughed, and said I was lucky I bought them in Fafnir gray, they were over twice as much when purchased in John Deere Green,
