Want To Buy: Windbugger Wind Generator Parts

[panamasteve]

Hi, I am looking for that part for my Windbugger that the bushings go into, or even just the bushings themselves. Anybody help or any ideas, please?

Greetings and welcome aboard the CF, Steve.

I’d take it to a Bearing/Industrial supply distributer. I highly doubt that “Bugger Bob” (Robert Van der Wall) used proprietary parts.

Hello,

Yes, I believe it's called the thrust bearing. I have a poll mounted WB. It's the part that the wires attach to and fits in the pole. Do you have a picture of it? How are the bushings and the copper that fits over the top that the generator connects to? Thanks.
