3.2 big end bearings - where from?
« on: 04 March 2022, 21:28:57 »

Getting ready to strip the engine fully. I've been advised that it will probably need a set of bottom end bearings... But where would I get them from? Everywhere online seems to A-direct to Autodoc and B - be out of stock.

I'd like to prepare myself if it does need them rather than furiously Googling with oily mitts... :y

Find your local engine machine shop(it might not be very local!) and ask them. They will be dealing directly with the  suppliers for such things. You'll be needing them to machine the crank if the bearings are really bad.
