SBJD Cam Roller Bearings October 03, 2016 07:46AM
I'd like to convert an older style SBJD to roller bearings for the cam, but can't find a drawn cup roller bearing with 2-3/8" bore. Has anyone done this and if so where did you get the bearings?

Thanks

Because of the extreme amount of flex in the Deere cam I would advise against putting roller bearings in the block as they will likely spit themselves out.

If you go to a 7 journal cam, and tool steel it works just fine. Not sure what the bearing is though, but we have made the camshaft for it.

Going to need a 9.0L block though for a 7 journal Deere cam unless some serious machine work and fabrication is involved.

The 7.6L and 8.1L for sure can be done. I haven't looked at the 466 block.
