Re-Speed Coil Over Thrust Bearings

Does anyone know the part number or where I can get the thrust bearings and washers that are used with the Re-Speed street front coil overs? Are these generic parts?

I beleive that they are standard parts, but not sure on #s or anything.

You can try to get ahold of Sam (DJ55B), or if that doesn't work then Billy Waits (Bwaits) might be able to help you out with the #s.

Good luck.

Haven't heard anything yet from emailing re-speed.

Anyone know the size of the thrust bearings?

Just take what you have to any bearing shop and they should be able to hook you up. Those thrust bearings certainly arn't anything fancy. I'd imagine Re-speed were using fairly common and easily obtainable bearings and fittings in most of their stuff.

McMaster-Carr uses their own part numbers. They won't mean anything to anyone that works at a bearing house. Industry standard numbers for those parts are:

Thrust Bearing: NTA 1423 Torrington

Thrust Washer .032: TRA 1423 Torrington

Thrust Washer .126: TRD 1423 Torrington

In Sam's defense, I didn't PM him, only sent an email to the re-speed account.
