Yh I have that in my book as well, however it’s not a compatible part number that cat recognises if that makes sense, I need the updated part number
I have 3B7980 for flywheel bearing and 3B7979 for front of tractor bearing, and 2A3435 for the dowel (2 required). These numbers are for 3J1 through 3J4877. Then it changes to 8B6 which would be 8B0006 in Cat's system for the flywheel end and 8B0005 for the front of tractor. Dowel part # is unchanged
Thank you all, so handy you guys all helping me out

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
