I mean little steel balls.
7.1mm balls .... ten of.....
My kubota steering collapsed. I rebuilt the box only to find that the bearings top and bottom had been damaged.
After several weeks of searching I cannot find the right sized balls!!!
So if any of you have 7.1mm balls.... I'd love to have some!
Cheers Royce

I assume you have tried a kubota agent & bearing shops

7.1mm sounds a bit iffy as a size, I dont have my verniers handy to convert, but I'd reckon it would be an imperial size 11/32nd or something.
I got similair ball bearings from a local bearfast outlet, they had heaps of different sizes.
Why not just replace whole bearing inc races, may be lot easier, then you only gotta worry about sizing the bearing to fit which is prob gonna be easier than finding unique ball bearings, and shouldnt cost a lot

Near as dammit that's 9/32" - probably just measurement error.
Take a look here - don't know what shipping/cost time is like?
USA bearing supplier
About 2/3 of the way down the page.
