Here's a snapshot of a "control yoke bearing" for the Chad 206. I put it in the palm of my hand to illustrate its size. Three bearings are positioned around each control yoke to facilitate smooth directional control of the aircraft. Supported by the bearings, the control yoke rotates right and left, like a car steering wheel. It can also move fore and aft (while turning left or right) to cause climbing turns or descending turns. There are six of these bearings in every Cessna 206, three on each of the two control yokes.Dale and Gertjan inspected the six bearings today and found that four of the six need to be replaced. How much do you think this part costs? Please click on the comment link and leave your guess. I'll get back with you with the actual retail price.

My guess, if it were just laying around Ralph's shop would be less than a dollar, but since you've described it as you have and given the impression that it's worth more than we think, I will guess $12. Is there a prize?
