Crank bearings, and introducing new member friend

[Normzilla]

A friend and new member here. @Avisagio is still trying to navigate the system. He's looking for the best source to get crank bearings, for a ms 361 and 362. As well as I wanted to introduce him. Travis gio. We've been friends for awhile. Solid dude very mechanical. And doing saw saw repairs and building. Travis and I lived in the same town Cazadero in CA. Where my wife and I just moved from. I will vouche for Travis. Stand up guy.

Hey, Norm! Thanks for the intro. To all the veteran saw builders here, thanks to you all for the numbers and countless hours of theory. I have a small machine shop and a big interest in making 2 strokes sing. Looking forward to joining the discussions.

I have a couple save-a-saw projects I could use some parts for. If anyone has any 361 and or 362 parts I'd be happy to pay someone here instead of the parts store.

Welcome Travis -

I'm sure someone has 361/362 parts that can help you out. I'd be keen on seeing what kind of projects you have going on.

I'm more of a restorer and with that I have a bunch of parts catalogs and try to go by generic sizes .So far none of the vintage saws have needed main bearings only the more modern ones and those by OEM parts numbers .Often times some chainsaw engines have counter part concrete saws that share some of the same parts .I'll just say often times it takes a lot of research .Then again if were easy anybody could do it .
