5x8x2.5 flanged bearing that works

Okay, this is just a FYI, if you're in a
spot and you can't find what you
need this may help.

I broke a front axle shaft and the
bearing on the outer end of the inner
axle (which is a 5×8×2.5) got
shredded at the same time.

When I ordered bearings I
accidentally ordered a bearing with a
flange. When it showed up I thought
that it would not be able to work. But
when I went to the truck, I noticed a
recess for a flanged bearing to work.
I actually ended up putting it
together with the flanged bearing
and it works just fine.

Hopefully this may be helpful in
getting your trail finder 2 up and
running quicker if you are at a hobby
shop and they don't have the non
flanged bearing you thought you had
to have.
