Hi Team. I need pony big end bearings. I managed to order one pair of 6B2298 from CAT. They did say they could get them made with a 90+day lead time but after waiting that long, they seem to have lost track of the order and nothing seems to be on the way... Any ideas for how I can get a set? Is it a terrible idea to shim out old bearings?
There are some available from "machinery trader parts " website.
Are you looking for std. or oversize? Reason I ask is std. are often easily available but requires you to build up your crank. That's what I did with my 5U main engine crank for the front journal
Our channel highlights machines from the earliest Holt and Best track-type tractors, equipment from the start of Caterpillar in 1925, up to units built in the mid-1960s.

"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."
