Drag Specialties carries them, so any local indy shop should have them. I stock them as well......

Most aftermarket shops can order them from the parts distributors, we just get them from a local bearing house.

Torrington part numbers ...
B-138 EVO
B-148 99-06 Twin Cam (exc Dyna)
B-168 06 Dyna, 07-up Twin Cam

When you change cams Duane, S&S makes a install kit where you get the necessary gaskets, lock plate, and these Torrington inner cam bearings.

If you get a new Cam Plate - as in the SE one, are in the plate and if so, are they Torrinton bearings?

Hey Van - you watching this thread?

Do I have the necessary tools to r&r these bearings?

Lot of talk here about crank run-out too. Is it more of an issue when you go to gear drives, as in the chains compensate for the run-out somewhat?

LtBawb may finally be getting ready to order some parts for his bike and the run out has me concerned. If his tensioners failed at 12000 miles, maybe the run out is excessive also.

And I am assuming that if we tear it apart and find excessive run out that this job now becomes a major pita and has to be sent out for repair.

The inner cam bearings are not located in the cam plate, they are in the case and support the other end of the cam.

Thanks, showing my total lack of knowledge here.
