That number was the one I used that came apart but not that brand. There are no load specs for that bearing. I do understand that the other bearing is slightly larger ID but should be ok. Anyway, I have put too much money in this axle trying different bearings and bushings. I am sticking with the brass bushing.
Can't Pull Mower Backwards - HRR216VLA to bearing conversion

Too bad Honda came out with the newer HRN because with the bushing issues involving the HRR model, perhaps we could have applied to Honda for a joint “Grant” to fund this endeavor. Only kidding.
Too funny, I wonder when/if Honda is coming out with a battery mower.
My guess is they are already working on one. With California adopting the elimination in sales of small gas power engines and who knows what other states may follow, Honda will need to revise its market strategy or it could take the path of the once great giant - Sears.
They do in Australia HRG416 and HRG466, matter of time here

Going into third season, all is well. Pull back is about equal to push, maybe 55/45 but getting better as time goes on. These bronze Oillite bushings are the way to go for sure! I think they get "worn in" as time goes on.
That is good to know and I am experiencing the same. I only have a few months of mow. Was considering a new mower but when I get through mowing my yard looks so nice. Going to run this mower for as long as I can. Not sure on battery mowers, too expensive and not sure of quality of cut. Hard or can't beat a Honda mower for quality of cut.
