Tight countershaft

MP,
Thanks for all your suggestions.
It had crossed my mind to about one of the bearings being slightly larger.
Will try without the crank so I can knock that of the list as well.

much luck .. and let us know, what was the problem at least...  :wink:

Still coming back to the countershaft bearing.
Tried cases without the crank, still to snug.
Tried without shift drum, same result.
Tried without main shaft same thing.
I've heated and re driven this bearing in attempt to make sure it was properly seated. But through process of elimination I keep coming back to this.
Might need to pop the bearing out, order a nos bearing and see my friend with his hydraulic press.

Will the cases "Seat" with the bearing removed?
