Title: BMW conversion bearings Post by: leec on July 16, 2018, 22:35:25 pm Hi guys,
Quick question. I know people are using BMW bearings to run a type 4 journal crank in a standard line bore type 1 case. Are these bearings available for a type 4 mains crank that has had a grind to first undersized?

I will check the part number and you could ask the supplier about it. You also need to narrow the bearing.

Need to narrow them tho as said. Title: Re: BMW conversion bearings Post by: UltraOrange67-2443 on July 23, 2018, 15:07:22 pm Don't forget to add the notch for the Bearing tang!
That thrust Bearing are you using? Title: Re: BMW conversion bearings Post by: leec on July 23, 2018, 17:36:35 pm I haven't got that far with this yet. I have bought the crank now and will wait for it to arrive and go from there
