S&S Cycle Tappet Roller Kit for 1929-1984 Harley-Davidson Big Twin and Ironhead Sportster
Worn tappet rollers cause accelerated cam lobe wear and valvetrain noise on classic Big Twin and Ironhead Sportster engines. This kit restores smooth tappet operation by replacing the rollers and axles without requiring new tappet bodies. Precision rollers made from 52100 bearing material with 4340 chromoly axles deliver the durability your rebuilt valvetrain requires.
