Broken part from linear actuator

Greetings

After 20 years my actuator tore apart - you can see from shot
Would you please advise on how to get broken part and how can I assemble again

Was that 18" actuator? I have several parts like this, used but in better condition than yours. If you are ready to pay shipping price, I could mail you one.

Alex! I have 3 candidates for you. All tubes are 35mm in diameter, 2 x 56cm in length and one is 42cm. If you feel one can fit, let me know.

OK, when you are tired of doing that, take one (outer tube and inner rod) set from me.

And think about adding a counterweight to the dish before putting it back together.

we see the remains of a ball bearing !!! change it!
- sand the tubes well and repaint them
- grease the inner screw by removing it by unscrewing (no need to completely assemble the central tube) use a screwdriver to turn the central screw.

I got some progress.
Managed to remove the remaining from ball bearing - outer ring.
Now I have to order ball bearing - Inner diameter Is 10 mm , outer diameter Is 30 mm, height Is 9 mm
Would you please recommend which brand and model of ball bearing to order - I need something very reliable
