Allan,

If I recall correctly, you are in the Colorado Springs area.  Whisler Bearing on 
North Cascade was able to match some factory original IHC front wheel bearings from 
my mid '50's IHC 300 tractor.  Apparently Whisler does have an IHC to Timken cross 
reference.  They even had the bearings in stock!
