Oliver 77 main beaings

[Brian Williams]

I have a 1950 Oliver 77 that I am searching for main bearings for. I have the Clevite number but no one can seem to cross it to anything else. Trying Napa but not a lot of success. I have two questions. Are the bearings from an 88 the same as a 77? And does anyone have the part number available? I would like to get these locally if I can.

Thanks

I checked Mahle (Clevite) part number is MS406P-(size), but do not have my old login to check availability. What is your reasoning for not wanting Mahle/Clevite? I checked FP-Diesel (Federal-Moguls HD brand) and they no longer list the main set, only rods. The trick with the Mahle bearings is if there is still stock available. What our Mahle rep (think he's retired now) told us was that if they couldn't sell at least 500 a year of something it wasn't worth making/refurbishing the tooling for continued production.
