I was going to order the cam bearings from Aircraft Spruce, but they wanted nearly $40 per
bearing.  Since I need four for the popup tipup mechanism and another two for the canopy
strut stops, that was goign to be a hefty order.  Instead, I shopped around.  Found a place
that had some surplus bearings in stock in florida for $5 each.  They had a minimum order of
$50, so I ordered qty 10 instead of the six I needed.  They arrived today.  Not the best
condition.  These things are ancient and some have corrosion on the outside, and for all of
them, the lubricant seems pretty dried up.
