Does any know cross reference numbers for upper crankshaft bearings with either the 1.375 and 1.500 inner diameters? Timken Skf or what ever?

Cheaper alternative then merc prices in Canada

Put the merc part number in Amazon search, most of the time it's somewhere around 50% of the merc cost. When I ordered bearings they came from promarineusa.com and where koyo brand.

Any bearing from any reputable manufacturer has a catalogue number on it. Bearing retailers will supply you adequate substitutes at way less cost than Mercury or Yamaha or or are charging. Timken bought Torrington and is selling them under the Koyo name, which they also acquired to broaden their market share in Japan. The lot is marketed by company JTEKT. Funny enough - they took over the original Torrington numbers.
Hope this helps. Can save you $$$$ on a major rebuild like lower unit.
