roller rockers rebuild???

was woundering if anyone ever rebuilt their roller rockers.i have t/a rockers that i've been running for 10 plus years.i see that the shafts are pitting and coming apart.i'm thinkling of replacing the shafts and the bearings in all of them.is it worth it,can you get the bearings?? or should i just buy new ones.

 

ttt??

 

Dan,parts are available,do it. Cheaper than a new set.

I sent a set directly to T&D and for 280.00 they replaced alot of stuff. I let them get rusty from not storing them in a temp controled garage and well oiled for 4 years. They replaced bearings, rollers, shafts and some of the cups and set nuts.

They did it quick too.

 

All the parts can be bought from TA.

I broke a main shaft when a hold down stud pulled out. Laid out everything in order as it came off the shaft.

Just remember there are left and right side rocker arms.

Supprised that TA does not offer a rebuild "kit".

 

thanx guys,i'll look into it.i'll have a ta order to put in this winter anyway..

 

Save yourself some coin and send them directly to T&D.

Call T&D before you send them your rockers and see if they work on your type, I called them for a repair on some Kenne Bell ones I have and they said sure, send them to us. To make a long story short, they called me a week later and said we don't work on this type and we need a credit card number so we can charge you the shipping back to you.:shock:

 

Dan,
We do rebuild them. Not often. They last to long

 

thanks mike,shoot me a price to replace all bearings and shafts.also turnaround time.i'm not in a hurry.but still need to no.again thanks.

 

I've had mine for nearly 20 years, and only needed to replace a couple of adjuster screw nut assemblies.

 

I have a set at home they really need a rebuild (a pushrod bend and .......) new shaft, 2 rocker and a good inspection can i send it to you taperf

 

You guys are way better off contacting TA directly than waiting for them to happen across this thread to answer your questions...

Yes, but please call first so we can give you a return number. This will generate paper work so our folks will know why they have shown up and what needs to be done.

Dan, we received your rockers. I did not have enough bearings in stock at the time of there arrival. Bearings came in Thur 13. Should have them on there way back next week.

 

sounds good,thanx mike.
