Abstract
A bearing for retro-fit or repair of an engine provides high reliability through a sleeved bearing design having externally-supplied lubrication. The bearing assembly may be supplied as a kit including a lubrication delivery tube and an oil filter adapter having a port for supplying the external lubrication to a mounting flange of the bearing. In order to install the bearing a captive sleeve is inserted in a hollow end of the shaft being supported. A cap having a threaded stud is inserted with the sleeve into the hollow end of the shaft and secured by the required snap ring. Then a nut is used to secure the cap and the sleeve to a stud affixed to the mounting flange that secures the bearing assembly to the engine.
