Austin Healey 100-4 BN1 BN2 LeMans Thrust Washers. New old stock Vandervell bearing set ( crank thrust washers) Very rar49.003 over standard to correct end play. If there’s excess end play on a fresh motor, it may be because the block and crank weren’t properly dressed or ground in the thrust area, excess wear over time, the crank is bent, or the main-bearing thrust cap and journal are cocked (usually because the line hone is off). … The crank can shift or bind, causing serious damage to the engine block. Vandervell produced slightly oversize bearing during the 1950’s and 1960’s to compensate for engine crank or end cap wear. Current manufactures do not offer thrust washers in oversizes so they have become extremely difficult to source.
