Well, I remembered that and made sure it was a roller
bearing.

Well, that's the way it started out as. I put it back
together, packed the little sucker full of bearing
grease, and popped it back in place. Two days later it
was grinding again, and this time when I popped it
out, the inner chase disintegrated. Enter replacement
bearing.

So, I replaced it and now all is well.
