It does not — the 72C 1:1 direct drive uses B309AGS. Customers rebuilding a reduction unit who find this bearing at the case interface are correct to use B308AGS, but those rebuilding a 72C 1:1 direct drive need a different part. The other common issue is not confirming the gear ratio first: B308AGS is not used in 1.52:1 or 2.10:1 reduction configurations, so ordering by transmission family alone can result in the wrong bearing arriving on the bench.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BOR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43563780014116,"sku":"B308AGS","price":184.22,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/5799\/7604\/files\/a525aabd-424f-4a81-8eb9-16a284a8472d.png?v=1788811088"},{"product_id":"fairview-157","title":"N-10 Inch-Series Bearing Locknut 1.967\"-18 TPI - N0-10","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eN0-10\u003c\/strong\u003e, also commonly written as \u003cstrong\u003eN-10\u003c\/strong\u003e, is a standard inch-series \u003cstrong\u003ebearing locknut\u003c\/strong\u003e used to secure rolling bearings, pulleys, gears, sleeves, and other rotating components on compatible shafts.

It’s most commonly ordered during overhauls following lubrication failure, water intrusion, or when excessive crankshaft clearance is found during inspection. Because up to two kits can be needed in a six-cylinder assembly, always check the diagram for quantity before ordering — it’s worth confirming once rather than ordering again mid-teardown.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Issues:\u003c\/strong\u003e The most frequent mistake is ordering a single kit when the diagram requires two for a complete center main bearing service on a six-cylinder powerhead. The second common issue is installing new bearings on a crankshaft with worn or scored journals — new bearings on a worn journal fail quickly and require a second teardown.
