I won an auction of Electrolux brush rolls they are either for the early Electrolux upright or the PN 4. Three of the brush rolls in the auction have beater bars on them. It looks like Electrolux experimented with beater bars at one point. I just found this rather odd. It seems like I remember reading that on this site.

The brushrolls I purchased on eBay are definitely for the upright. They are bigger in diameter than the brushroll for the PN 4. The brush roll with the beaters did fit in the pn 4 but didn't improve performance much at all. The best brush out of the lot is the three row brush roll. It improved performance quite a bit in my upright. Just thought I would share. I believe I have the kit to raise the wheels as shown in picture 4. My other Electrolux upright does not have the metal bars on the rear wheels.
