Welcome to the site!  Do you mean the bearing at each end of the shaft?  Pictures help if you can post one.

It depends on the year of your invader.  The 78-79's used a different bearing than the 80-81's.  Your best bet is to take the old bearing to your local bearing shop and have them match it up ( this is what I did).  Much more economical than paying NOS eBay prices.

The part number you have is for a ''78-79 Invader only'' track drive bearing. It comes as an assembly with a collar 92027-3502 and a set screw 92009-3526. Like Gixxer6 mentionned, it is cheaper to go through your local bearing shop (if they can match it) and if the quality is at par with the oem bearing....
Tolerances and quality  from certain ''foreign'' bearing companies are to be questionned sometimes....make sure you you get what you pay for.....just like oem parts...
It is true that ''sometimes'', aftermarket is better than oem.....but that's pretty rare....unless you pay an arm and a leg for the part....nothing beats mass production as for cost...

I also hate paying the high prices of certain ebay sellers not to mention the shipping charges...but when ''your'' desire is to have exactly what the original ''maker and designer'' of the machine created....that's one avenue that reaches people across the planet like no other..........because up here in Canada, compared to the US, we have nothing close to what is available ''parts wise'' for vintage sleds  and when you can buy a part from the comfort of your home without travelling 2000 miles to get it......well you pay the price and the shipping charges...

Take care

What are the numbers on the right foot area of the tunnel?  That will help get the correct parts.
