Hello,
I am new to this website. I have the Del Mar machine and have enjoyed using it for the past 10 years and it is still in excellent condition expect the bushing in the Press Arm has gone bad. Does anybody know where a bushing or a replacement press arm can be found? Is there a work around to fix this problem? Thank you.
I have the same system and have been using it for at least 10 years also. I've had no problems with mine but did run accross this site that sells parts for fitness equipment. You should be able to find what you need here.

Any suggestions for anything that isn't offered on that site?
Ie:
The weight stack bolt that attaches the pulley system to the top weight and such.
Part number 151 in the url below.

The press arm bearing for the pacific fitness is not for sale anywhere. However it is basically a flanged bearing 3/4" inside and 1 1/8" outside.
I purchased this:

If the listing is gone just go to ebay and search for
FLANGE WHEEL BEARING 3/8 1-1/8
This is the correct size, mine did not fit exactly so I had to use a rat tail file to remove just a 1/64 of an inch around the frame where the bearing goes in. Yours might fit without this.
My email is rhornback@hotmail.com if you have any questions.
Hope this helps someone!
I found a bearing company in St Petersburg, FL that has what he called a lawnmower or wheel borrow bearing. Google bearing GLO09327 and should come up with a solution to the problem.

Any bearing shop should have a lawnmower wheel bearing GLO09327 that works.
