Default Rod Bearings 32-38 .020--030

Can anyone tell me where I might get a set of rod bearing for 32-38 flathead .020 or .030 with the flange. I'd take them with the .004--.008 oversize OD if that was all they had. Thanks Walt

I don't know what you mean, 59A rods are larger on big end than early 2in. cranks. Any auto machine shop should be able to recon rods. I do my own on my Sunnen hone. Walt

Only extra set like this I have . As you can see they are .030 - .008 and are gennie Ford and pretty minty on condition . Clueless as to a fair price as you rarely see these . Tons of std , .002 etc around but not the .020 - .030 ones .

Walt, if Job Lot does not have them, contact Fred at Southside Obsolete in Faribault MN. I believe he goes under barnstuf08 on Fordbarn. Russ

I just purchased some .030 from Fred at Southside Obsolete in Fairbault MN they were NOS FORD and very reasonable, I'm surprised he hasn't chimed in yet.
