Hi there , I am rebuilding a d315 and are looking for a reliable supply of bearing shells, I need to get the crank ground but shell availability in oversizes seems patchy, I would like to do a 10 thou grind and agkits seem to have shells but I Am based in New Zealand , does anybody have reccomendations on other outfits who can supply..
Hi, I'm also from NZ (but live in the US). I had the same challenge with my D311. For the two journals I couldn't find oversize for I just had spray welded back to std. because there is a ready supply of standard size shells. Something to consider? If so, Cat still had them as of 2016 when I bought mine

"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."
