auxiliary drive bearings

[PaulMK1]

Does anyone know where I can get the rear bearing/bush for the Pinto Auxiliary drive?

Number 18 here: http://www.fordopedia.org/parts-catalog/pinto-ohc/B1.50

Never seen one but have you asked Ford

Hi Danny, Ford did not recognise the part number and basically laughed about parts for a 70's engine.

This block was acid washed and the shop removed all the bearing prior to treatment. I have found a place that'll make me a bush and the outer bearing is still readily available.

Cheers, Paul.

Paul I have never seen one and I have all my blocks hot tanked and yes the front one falls out and the rear one always runs in the cast iron
