Anyone have a good Chrysler or NAPA part number for a pilot bearing, not a bushing, that I can use in the end of a steel carnk 440 in front of a 833 trans? I used the bronze bushing last time, but heard there is an actual bearing I can use instead? I have also seen that a mid nineties pilot bearing for a 360 RAM works as well?

Not looking for horsepower! The bushing I removed was paper thin after twenty two years of heavy use. I was looking for durability... No one locally had the bearing, so back in goes another bushing!

Then consider yourself lucky that you had a bushing in there and not a bearing! Something had to be out of whack to cause the bushing to wear. Had it been a bearing you would have had balls and other bits of metal flying around in the bellhousing and the crank and trans pilot shaft would both likely have been junk.

I just went through this. The 4338876 is discontinued, I had to get one from a dealer in Indiana which had exactly one on the shelf. To me the bushing is just one less thing to fail. Here are my notes: The "AB"s are what the discontinued part crossed over as the replacement. 4338876 - Old PN for discontinued crank register style bushing 53009180AB hub register style sleeve & roller bearing 53009181AB crank register style roller bearings Here is mine installed:
