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. |

Ok, thanks for the great info. So this is just a lull in the market? So no need to over pay for bearing sets if you can wait until stocks refill right?
