    Re: Prewar bearings

    Do you have any rod bearings for the same motor?

    Re: Prewar bearings

    I have a full set of O.E.M standard rod bearings and some oversize aftermarket bearings but odds and ends only. $30.00 for two bearing halves.
    I was inventorying my main and rod bearings but I am not finished.
    I know I have Commander and Champion six bearings but very little for the President 8.
    I have a 1939 President engine and transmission that was used as a sawmill power
    source on a skid made from the frame of that car.
