Big bearings... with an itty bitty race.

Oh that works too, I was thinking like crank case or transfer case.

Double row, too, and two-stage. *And* self-centering. I think they’re just showing off at that point.

In other big bearing news, the brand new $13B USS Gerald Ford had a thrust-bearing failure, forcing it to return to port for repairs: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-05-08/carrier-suffers-new-failure-at-sea-as-u-s-navy-seeks-more-funds
(Bearing not pictured, but a propeller shaft on a super carrier is several feet in diameter, so you know it’s big)

That is basically the size of the biggest bearing I have seen. It is nuts they keep bearing tolerances over something 4’ in diameter.
