[QUOTE="Twigg, post: 1156119, member: 27619"] Why are you sure they are not case hardened ... it would be the natural way to make then. Cut a bunch of blanks, case-harden them and grind to thickness. It's possible they are hardened by another method, but they are a bearing surface so they do have to be very hard. I didn't think you were being cheap, and yes, the three day wait would be a pita. I'm surprised the dealers don't keep a good supply, they must get bikes in for this job on a regular basis. [/QUOTE]
