STIHL Clutch Drum Fan Housing Assembly

[Merkava_4]

I bought this clutch drum off of eBay on 05/27/2025. Already the bearings feels rough and are making noise.

Are the bearings proprietary to Stihl, or can I replace with industry standard bearings?

There's video on YouTube that explains house to change the bearings on an Echo clutch drum. The Stihl should be similar.

Trimmer is the FS 91 R

There should be a standard bearing can you press in there. You'll need to remove the old bearing and get the measurements on it and then use those numbers to search for a replacement bearing. Sizing should be in millimeters.
