Just a heads up:
The bearings are available as others have said.
You will also need the seal if the bearing is shot.
Best to take it all apart and check the other 3 bearings as moisture from condensation plays havoc with the bearings.
You will also need to pay close attention to the gears to see that they don't have any bad teeth, as replacing bearings/seals on a set of broken, no longer available gears is money wasted.
Check the shafts also, they can be made/machined, if NLA.
You can make the cork gasket if need be from material available @ napa or other suppliers.
