I searched for the specific bearings mentioned in the article and found SKF bearings
When i was working in F1 we pretty much used exclusively SKF as they are renowned as being the best. For the saving on Renault prices over the [possible] increase on ebay part prices i'd deffo go for the SKF.
If someone can get a list of the right bearing sizes and types i can get a quote for a full SKF kit without profit-mongering
Whilst on the subject - anyone got info on the synchro units [part numbers, prices etc]

I found this post before as well cos my diff on the Mk1 started whining like crazy recently.
Was thinking of repairing it but then cost of repair vs getting a secondhand Mk2 upgrade was about the same so went for that option
Worth knowing though if I need to rebuild the Mk2 box in the future though

Good Info
I have up loaded some exploded views of all bearings / component into the photo bucket.
This also includes part numbers for both MK1 (PK6 012) and the MK2 (PK6 017) box and also what I believe is the bearing dimensions (Highlighted in blue).
There seems to be 2 part numbers associated with some bearings, I can only assume that this is for MK1 and MK2 reference.
