Good evening everyone,

I recently had my rear main seize on my d8-2u pony motor. I’m having a heck of a time finding any replacements the book shows 3f-561 for the rear and 3f-562 for the front. They have been discontinued by cat and I’m struggling on next steps. I also discovered while I was in there that my rod bearings were on their way out. I was able to find those from cat luckily. Does anyone have a source I’m really trying hard to not go direct start. Thanks everyone

look on Machinery Trader and search for 3F0561 and 3F0562. There are not many but there are a few. And is you crank Std size and condition good enough to not need grinding?

I found with one of my D2s that there were plenty of std bearing shells available so I had my crank welded up so that I wouldn't have more of a challenge getting bearings
