Title: Spur Gear Bearing help? W/picture
Post by: budryzer on April 07, 2015, 08:44:30 AM

Greetings All,
   I have a manual and I used the search feature but I'm in need of a link.  Milky Oil, so I checked and found this groove in my spur gear shaft.  I ordered two new bearings, shaft and seals.  My question is my manual doesn't show this '93 type of install.  Do I install the bearings in the case and then press in the spur gear?  It appears that my existing spur gear is a tolerance fit.....   Also, I should have two seals and two bearings, correct?
Any link to a thread on this would be helpful to me.

Thanks

Well, I got the seal.  It's just one wide seal, that is open on each side to keep one fluid away from the other.  They don't play well together :-o
Bearings and spur should arrive this PM in the mail.

My mailman shows up after 5pm here.......
