Does anyone know if any other manufacturer shares the same installed length pushrods as the Crane retrofit Hydraulic roller lifters (Crane #68532-16)?

I am unable to find an in-stock pair of Crane #68532-2's, as they are on backorder until almost the beginning of the year.

I wondered if anyone knows if there may be a suitable substitute available, or if they had a new pair sitting on their shelf???

Just have Smith Brothers make up a custom set. It only takes a couple days.

I damaged the top lip and slightly mauled the snap ring on one of my lifters when my rocker arm adjuster backed off and dropped the pushrod.

I have another pushrod, but can't find another pair of roller lifters anywhere in the US. Crane doesn't expect anouther shipment of them until the end of December.

I wondered if another lifter manufacturer may have a lifter with similar specs.

Oh, sorry, I thought you meant that you needed pushrods. You need lifters. I have a used set, but I would only sell the whole set for obvious reasons.
