Mazda Trix has the center bearing also. I ordered one through them when i did my rebuild. I think it was about $45 at the time. I use REW bearing for the front and rear also.

On a side note. Does anybody know the running clearance for the center bearing?

Either send me a PM, or call at (305) 235 3696
If no one answer, then leave a mesage.
I've been traveling a great deal lately, but I check my messages on regularly basis.
Pm's work great !

If Mazda Trix does have them, they are a good source also.
Make sure they are MAZDA OEM.

I also see that they use 2 different part numbers for the front and rear
the rear being this " O.S. " size.
I will check the price on all of them

Now,

O.S might be Over Sized bearings. I have a brand new E shaft so I'll just use the stock sized bearings if we can figure out Mazda's coded bearings

well i did some checking and it would appear that the 3 part numbers i checked for the
bearings for the 20b are no longer available
they did change up to a single part number which prices out for around the $40 mark
it is still a cosmo part number so i am guessing it is what is needed for the 20b.
