I have been looking at the input shaft bearing and I have an idea. Looking for some help if anyone can help. I need the ID of the bore the bearing fits in (in the aluminum case half) and the OD of the input shaft where the bearing rides on. Very precision. I have a Getrag here I can open up if no one can help. Just saves me the effort.

Rodney,

I'll be tearing apart a relatively low-mile (70k) Getrag in a week and can get these measurements...

I have this figured out. I'm working on this. It will take more than a few months yet but I will have Getrag input bearings available some time yet this year. Most likely by the middle/end of summer. This has been a long and interesting project but I have the answer and it will work.

Is this the bearing that rattles in the 5 speed getrag?
