I came across the sources below for stock metric bronze bushings. Anybody have others?

http://www.buntingbearings.com
individual stock bearings available through Amazon

http://www.McMaster.com
Various sizes available

http://www.asbbearings.com
Website has a store-front, but much of the stock says "call for pricing"


Thanks.

Hi Jim

what would be the use for the bronze bushing ? for a smallend in the conrod i would use Ampco 18
Arrow precision rods use Colsibro for the smallend and the Falicon knife rods use Ampco 45

I bought my stock small end bushing from Lacey. I need to replace the bushing in the timing cover at the end of the crank, and the ID will need to be slightly undersized. I also did some repair work near the kick start and that bushing needs to be replaced with one that has a slightly oversized OD. One by one I'm inspecting and fitting each as necessary. I'm planning to buy stock size bushings when possible and modify.
