Does anybody know the exact dimensions of the A and B bearings in the Tournament S5000T?

Have you tried measuring with a micrometer. Which bearings are the A and B.
I recently replaced bearings in an emblem X A and I'd guess they will be the same size.

the main ones, on the pinion and main gear and in the side cover. Don't have a micrometer...

If you don't have a micrometer or vernier then the safest way is to take them to a bearing factor.
In the unlikely event that there are none close perhaps a phone call then send the bearings by post.

I have noted the sizes down but cant find the bit of paper at the moment.
I did a set of daiwa and a set of shimano at roughly the same time so wouldnt like to give you any sizes until i find my notes to be sure I've got it right.
I will update once i find it.

Found it
These are what i used on a daiwa emblem X 5500a, the old blue ones that are like the Z.

Daiwa left (handle side) 689. 17 OD x 4 W x 9 ID.
Daiwa right 679. 14 x 3 x 9.

great, thanks a lot

I'm in awe of anyone sorting out bearings and fixing a reel. I took a side plate off once, got the fear, and gave up on my attempt at a service 😂

Tying some sort of fancy rig or fully dis assembling a fishing reel...?
I know which one I'd rather do !
