• I am aware that if you´re dead set on an original Jensen #15BL, this posting won´t be much good, but if not...
  
  Perhaps you could lure Bruce "Saint Paul Steam" to upgrade a standard genny with ball bearings for you.
  He has done this with great success on several during the years

• If I still had my milling machine I would help you out. I don’t have a good way to hold it all lined up to drill and ream the stands anymore.
  
  I have done a couple before.😉

  I am not dead set on the 15BL and that’s why I worded it as such. I would be more than happy with the SPS versions.

• I've Seen your post from the beginning , I have 3 cast iron based #15 , but no ball bearing #15 aluminum base generators, except for the twin 25/25BB plant that's for sale on EBay right now.

  I stayed with it as long as I could but at this point I don’t think it makes sense to take parts off it. Happy bidding folks.
