Default Re: Replacing taper bearings complete necessity for a rebuild?

The thing about those bearings is that they might come apart on you when you take the bellhousing off and pull the shafts up from the end case. Mine did twice, once the first time I opened it up and the second time after I had repacked them. Then I installed new ones without setting the preload properly and melted my 1-2 shift fork ... it's tricky stuff.
