SC rebearing

[Fred Smailes]

I think I need to rebearing my SC.
Looking for a tutorial, my searches have been fruitless.

Rebearing? As in replacing engine bearings?

Yeah more details needed… rod bearings? Main bearings? Supercharger bearings? Wheel bearings? Alternator bearings?

If its the SC itself, it may just be the coupler.

Sorry, to clarify,,,, the supercharger on the motor.
The bearings in the back of it seem to be rattling.
I used a mechanic stethoscope to pinpoint it. The snout seems good. I've tried searching here and sccoa to see if there's a tutorial and part #s but nothing so far.

Here are the bearings you need.

EATON HOUSING BEARING CLOSED (CUP) STYLE - Superchargers Online

Bearing type: Needle bearing Brand: EATON (USA) Dimensions: 17.462 x 23.823 x 20.400 mm

You also need the anaerobic sealer, and while you have it all apart, I would at the very least replace the coupler with a solid one as well.

ZZP Supercharger Coupler

Our ZZPerformance supercharger coupler is made from a proprietary oil impregnated material. This material has less friction than a standard supercharger coupler and will outlast the life of your vehicle. Don't be tricked into replacing your entire blower when you could possibly just need to...

Or you could rebuild the snout completely while it is apart with a kit like this.

Eaton Supercharger Coupler Rebuild Repair Bearing Snout Kit | eBay

Syringe with tube to remove oil from snout prior to removing snout so stinky old oil doesn't run all over your engine bay! They are pressed into the snout, so you will need to have a hydraulic press to install them.

Replacing them is pretty straightforward. Remove all the bolts around the snout, take the snout off, then separate the rotor pack from the case and remove the rotor pack, then just knock out the bearings and press in new ones.
