Re: output shaft bearing pics
When the splines wear down, the shaft will have more play when moving in a twisting motion, but will not 'wobble'. When you wear down splines you are not hollowing out the coupler, so it will always be held tight into place when in a position to wobble or move in any other way than intended. If you have a wobble, or something going on with your output shaft that will make it move that way, you are already dead. The tranny is done whether you have that bearing or not. I don't do this to customers units, but have done it to my own and never had an issue. I would say if you have not tried it, or don't rebuild these for a living then :shrug: I don't know what to say...
