if the shaft is 35mm

some units used a 30mm shaft and there is no easy way to tell although the 30mm often had plastic pulleys

also due to spider corrosion its advisable to strip the unit and check the spider first

if you want Better bearing you could always find a local bearing supplier and get 6206 and 6207 bearing but you still need the seal which is special to this range of washing machines . if it is a 30mm shaft it uses smaller bearing and another seal

the gen kit does use a rubber shrouded bearing but i dint think there is a weep hole in the rear drum half so it makes no rael difference

as said before check your spider first and if you go ahead pay careful attention to the wiring harness as they rub on the concrete weights if badly routed
