dtoots1-
bearing are quite forgiving, as long as crank is smooth, and your bearings arnt gouged etc, you have lots of good assembly grease, engine oil pump is good, ( so it gets oil ASAP on start up) and good oil, cross your fingers, and you should be ok.

I have good used set std main bearings for your engine, if that helps- ( for anyone )

dtoots1- give me a call- Sam, 250-983-4347 , and or message me. scork@goldcity.net re main brgs for 420 jd

Try Egge machine company , in California. They might have, or can make bearings. Dont know the contact number, but they should be on line now.

Started cleaning steering clutch metal plates and found I have 3 that are 1 1/2” wide, and rest are 1 1/8” wide.
Which are proper for my 440 ic 442172 serial ??

Tks, gus. I will try that. It is a shot in the dark tho, as all our parts houses up here dont keep anything on shelf more than 12 yrs old!!!

Does anyone know what brake rod to S clutch housing boots are avilable , or what is everyone using?

Hoping the end play on gear will allow more oil to get to bearings inside this gear . Also i cut little grooves in washer on back side of ...

After you get done checking and repairing as Jim has sugested, and you have an afternoon you need something to do, maybe check your tracks, I think they are on backwards, the grouser should come over idler first ?
Just saying.

An update to my request for thickness of gaskets on bevel gear bearing quills. I made my own(.029 thick) will allow that for ea side.

I have a set of .010 under, new main bearings, from my 440 jd. Had extra. Will sell trade as long as someone can use them.
Send me message to. scork@ goldcity.net.

On a 440 ic- 442172 bevel gear bearing quills, does anyone know how thick the original m811t gaskets are. If I knew that, it might save me from removing the side bearings one more time.
I am rebearing the bevel gear assembly( actuall the whole transmission)
Thank you

I have a set of rod and main bearings, they are from my 440 ic gas, they are brand new, i ended up with 2 sets for my rebuild.
I will check tomorrow and see what size they are, maybe you could check and see if they are the same for a 440 gas, and your 1010?
