• 026 198 493  is .25 over - that's just the bearing shells, not the thrust washers.

• myke_w is too modest.  Just make your life easy and order the good stuff from myke_w.
  
  PN 026 198 421 for the thrust washer kit.
  Here's the thrust washer kit I got from Myke_w (along with everything else)
  
  
  Note:  Mike, I just finished my motor and it Purring like a kitten.  (5 months kinda slow eh?, but I got some excuses like slow machine work and someone taking my AC compresser and holding it hostage for 2 months!)

  On topic...  I'd be glad to supply the thread creator with bearings, pm me if interested. no pressure tho, if you find them local, go for it, just don't buy junk.
