I know there has been talk lately about the lack of availability of bearing.
This could be the end all of our cars. Can't get hard parts, can't fix the aging engines. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) This is not acceptable. What is the problem? Don't these engines have the same crank shafts and blocks as VW busses? There is like a billion of those arond the world. Is there only one maker of these? Anyone ever thought about approching a manufacturer about producing these? How about a group buy or forming a sourcing committee to pursue manufacturers other than the one that currently stopped making the bearings? There bearings people not plutonium. |

Yes, Sorry I'll change the title. Ron, can you expand on that? What do you know about sources and why they dried up in the first place?
All this is likely in several threads, just trying to get it all in one place. |
