Timing Side Crank Axle
Posted: Tue May 09, 2023 12:38 am
Hi all,
Currently rebuilding my 1943 Matchless G3L engine but running into some issues. My timing side crank axle is damaged and I am struggling to find a new/used replacement or any bearings which would fit. Its the early type where it has a bush and roller bearing. I have spoken to Alpha bearings and they have said the bearings are a bit scarce so I am wondering if its worth going to the once piece bush and the different axle or if there is any fitment issues with doing this. AMOC sell brand new axles and bushes of the later type:
