Where to buy a thrust bearing?

[ritmusic2k]

So, here I am, getting into my 3.2 swap/refresh, and I ordered everything under the sun from RCM, but conspicuously absent from their parts list was the thrust bearing for the 3.0...

Anyone know a good place to pick one up?

I have a buddy who works for Ford and can get obsoleted parts... but in the event that there aren't any... anyone have ideas?

Thanks in advance!

I have some from my old 3.0L (212,000 miles). They're actually in remarkably good shape, so if you're really in a pinch and need some, shoot me a PM.

IIRC, the thrust bearings have long since been obsolete.

If you can find them, I'll buy at least one set.

When I had my 3.0L re-redone last May, the machine shop found a set.
