In many vintage restorations, you find a crankshaft that needs a deep 0.40mm grind to be smooth again, paired with a case that only needs a light 0.20mm line-bore to be true. This bearing set bridges those specific dimensions. By using this set, you can save an original German \"AS41\" case and a forged factory crankshaft that would otherwise be destined for the scrap heap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003eThis set is compatible with the 40hp 1200cc, 1300cc, 1500cc, and 1600cc upright engines used in the Beetle, Bus, and Ghia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"12\"\u003eDetailed Vehicle Compatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"13\"\u003eVW Beetle \u0026amp; Super Beetle:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"14\"\u003e1961, 1962, 1963, 1964, 1965, 1966, 1967, 1968, 1969, 1970, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1974, 1975, 1976, 1977, 1978, 1979\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"15\"\u003eVW Bus (Type 2):\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"16\"\u003e1961, 1962, 1963, 1964, 1965, 1966, 1967, 1968, 1969, 1970, 1971\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"17\"\u003eVW Karmann Ghia:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"18\"\u003e1961, 1962, 1963, 1964, 1965, 1966, 1967, 1968, 1969, 1970, 1971, 1972, 1974\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-path-to-node=\"19\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"20\"\u003eProduct Highlights \u0026amp; Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"21\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"21,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"21,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eCustom-Match Sizing:\u003c\/b\u003e Eliminates the need for \"mix and match\" bearing halves by providing a complete set matched to these specific machine shop dimensions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"21,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"21,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eThrust Surface Correction:\u003c\/b\u003e The +0.40mm thrust bearing flange allows the machinist to cut away significant \"crank walk\" damage on the case to restore perfect end-play.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"21,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"21,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eFactory-Spec Oiling:\u003c\/b\u003e Features pre-aligned oil holes to ensure consistent lubrication reaches the journals from the case galleys immediately upon startup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"22\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"23\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"23,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"23,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/b\u003e 111-198-479OS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"23,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"23,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eCrankshaft Journal:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40mm Undersize (-0.40mm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"23,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"23,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eEngine Case Bore:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.20mm Oversize (+0.20mm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"23,3,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"23,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eThrust Flange:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40mm Oversize (+0.40mm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"23,4,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"23,4,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eEngine Fitment:\u003c\/b\u003e 1200cc–1600cc Type 1 Based\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr data-path-to-node=\"24\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"25\"\u003eInstallation \u0026amp; Maintenance Tips\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"26\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"26,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"26,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eTriple-Check Measurements:\u003c\/b\u003e Because this set covers three different machined surfaces, use a micrometer and dial bore gauge to verify the crank (-.40), case (+.20), and thrust (+.40) all match perfectly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"26,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"26,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eThrust Bearing Orientation:\u003c\/b\u003e Ensure the thrust bearing (the one with the flanges) is installed in the correct saddle (usually the flywheel end).
