Re: Gearbox type

I think the inner covers crack when the bearing is driven in too hard...Cracked covers are fairly common but I've not seen a total failure yet and I've handled a lot of them over the years....

Heat the cover and cool the bearing in the freezer overnight (in a plastic bag) before fitting and it will just drop in...

The fixed gears on both the main shaft and the lay shaft should be a press fit...Ian

Re: Gearbox type

Thanks. That helps me a lot.
I will fit new bearings as is.
And can reassemble gear shaft.
