I did keep the old bearings as spares.  I will mic them.  Some bearing
numbers I came across.

FAG 113501283
Uro Parts 311405625F
SKF 31211101115
Timken 311405625B  But Timken has MANY part numbers for this bearing

Bobnotch knows the differences between years, but even he might not have
part numbers.  You should have kept your old bearings to mic/compare at a
Timkens/Bearings Inc etc.
