Tony, items like those rods, just put a request on the Buy / Sell section on here, or better still, get a advert put in the Club magazine, it's free, 2,800 members will see it there, only about 30 ACMOC members are on this Forum regularly.

If Florin do not have them for a reasonable price, there will be a lot of parts D4 tractors out there guys would be happy to make a few bucks from.

When I bought those bearings they cost about 20 quid each.
Good luck
Mike

So many variables in the bearing business,and then when made in the land of almost as good.

I have a question to those more knowledgeable about bearings. Is there anything in the bearing number telling how many balls there will be before open the plastic seal on the bearing.I am having vag memories of maybe something like maximum ball or something.

But if you have a Cat dealer some what close and not saying go away easiest to just order them there. And then hope Cat is really watching that 3rd world plant, is using good materials. The only part I have seen so far is a thermostat for a D 318 in a Cat box with made in China on it.
