    This is a pair of bearings from main drive shaft from behind a main wheel on a panzer 4 tank.The 2 parts which are separate there are no moving parts they have rusted solid they still retain some original colours they pretty much un damaged but they are rusty but are very solid not braking up or falling apart and have been nicely cleaned and are perfect for display or any collection they are nice size at 5-6 inches wide. The parts are from German Panzer 4 tank of the Panzer Lehr division recovered near Rochefort in The Ardennes Forest from the Battle of the Bulge in the winter of 1944-1945.The part comes with  A5 laminated information card with pictures.

    During the run up to the Ardennes offensive, Panzer Lehr was kept in reserve on 15 December, the day before the offensive began, Panzer Lehr was still severely understrength, with only one of its two tank battalions ready for action, the other restored to its parent unit, the 3rd panzer division. Both of its panzergrenadier regiments were at 80 percent of its authorized strength. It had only 57 tanks (30 Panthers and 27 Panzer IV) and 20 Jagdpanzer IV/70's by the time the attack started. Rochefort, which was a village, attacked by the Panzer Lehr division on the 23rd December 1944 so this how we know this armour plate is from a Panzer Lehr division Panzer 4 Tank destroyed sometime during the battle around the Village.
