on a 88 ,torrington b-148 any bearing supply house should be able to order them. Pay attention when installing them, lettering out. You can only get the roller outer rear bearing from Harley, nobody else can get it. Mike

Default bearings

When you replace the inner bearings make sure you get the full compliment, they have twice the # of rollers.

I just ordered/ received a set of Andrews cam, and a rear roller bearing was included. The bearing was bagged and not in a box, and did not have a number on it or I would post it here....

b-148 for your bike. Dealerships also sell them. Costs more of course.

kbore, I also just had the Andrews 26'h installed, and during the install the HD service mgr and I had a pretty good talk about the inner cam bearings.
They have always used the INA"S that come in the HD cam bearing kit, so I called three other dealers and found that 3 of 4 dealerships use the INA's unless the customer demands the torringtons.
To help make up my mind I called Andrews and talked to a tech, and he told me that if I got a cam kit from Andrews it would have the INA"s inner cam bearings in it. Also in there testing they said the INA's won out by a small margin in there testing.

Any bearings bought from HD will be INA unless your dealer also buys & stocks Torrington (Timken). INA is the exclusive supplier to HD for all bearings.
