Good morning all (or whatever time it is for you),
I have a 1950s M123 with the Leroi th844. It would seem to have a pretty nasty knock, I'm guessing it's a crank bearing im not sure. It runs perfect, other than the knock. I don't know who else to ask, so I'm looking for solutions. Is it possible to get a set of bearings made if I'm right? What's the likelyhood somebody has a TH844 laying around? Lol, I know. Or is all for naught and I just need to throw a C13 and an Allison in there? Thanks all have a good day.

This is the diesel replacement. Hard to find not sure if this one is still available.

I've seen a couple engine knocks in tacticals be broken accessory brackets (alternator/generator or compressor).

It was really tough to find them, but easier than an overhaul...
