where to get the rod bearings?

[techi14]

Been searching, but havent found a part number or any specifics on where and how much. :thankyou:

SEARCH!!!

Autozone, O'rieleys, Advanced, Rockauto..... Should be about $60 for a set.

RCM has a kit with the Oil pan gasket that you'll need.

Clevite P/N: CB-1435P

Just make sure you start soaking the Y-pipe exhahust studs a few days in advanced with PB blaster, and give them a few raps with a hammer every time.

 

[techi14]

thanks, appreciate it. Did search but only to people changing them and what not.

the shopheonix forum or whatever has a excellent writeup that will help by the way

 

[techi14]

yeah, Been looking at them writeups, pretty helpful. Might donate some cash if there is any left after doing all this shit to the sho...

 

[thecrew2999]

i dont think you can donate to the phoenix one anymore.. you also know its not a requirement to donate correct?

 

[jthod]

I think Bizzy (administer on this site) still adds to the SHOPP site. She'd be glad to take donations. She keeps this forum running, along with all of the other Adm's!

be careful you dont lose your speaking privileges tho

Most here will recommend that you get Clevite bearings.

They are available at NAPA, the PartsAmerica website (online ordering for Advance Auto, CSK, Murrays Discount, Schucks), and through RCM.

Clevite bearings are not available at AutoZone, O'Reilly's, or Rock Auto. Locally, my Advance Auto said they could not order them.

i get mine from napa. they use the clevite as well... they seem to be good bearing.

They are available at NAPA, but they are a special order item and you have to pay shipping plus wait. I just ordered the kit from RCM Automotive instead, and it worked out fine.

I suggest buying the bearings from RCM. It comes with everything that you need for $60. The rest of the back breaking work is on you!

 

[jthod]

I got my Clevite Bearings from Autozone, I think Clevite is the only company that still makes them. And they don't charge for shipping, usually pretty quick too. Unless they 'misplace' yours like they did mine, IN THE STORE!!

 

[techi14]

yeah, I found the rcm website yesterday. But looking at some feedback on here about them got me weary on purchasing with them. Plus I don;t want to have to wait, I need all the stuff so I can have the car running by like next week.

 

[itwonder]

They are K1435P on Autozone, but 0 available when you try to checkout. I don't think any parts warehouse stocks them anymore ; you have to find somebody like NAPA who can order them direct from Clevite, or a SHO parts place like RCM.

I would try here
they are the cheapest here, and they come with everything that you need to get the job done
I ordered a set from them last night, and according to the tracking number, they are gonna be here tomorrow

i guess they must know about us here then.. they keep all sho parts in stock for the most part for us all the time (since we fix a lot i guess). We have an account so maybe that's why, but it is easy for me to get parts right away from them (they even deliver them at lunch time!!!)

Do us all a favor, try and support the venders who support this site. I always recommend SHOnut to people. They are alittle more expensive but the money is going back into the community. There are several other venders on here that sell the bearings as well.

 

[techi14]

I got $1000+ purchased on shosource, I want to support, Im just being cautious. Im just gonna order em from rcm.

 

[Storm-Chaser]

I'd like to know how RCM is getting them at the price he is. I set up a business account with my local NAPA, and couldn't even come close to buying them for RCM's price . . . .
