This my replacment part for tail shaft bearing, going with inner rings, shafts are to soft, only one hard enough is the driven hub.

inner rings will be fitted to shafts, and then if need be ground to fit needle bearing bore.

some inner rings will just need to be fitted to shafts,

the pictures, the first bracket i made was out of cold roll and a bitch to machine, the other is aluminum, made oil holes but i am leaving it to machine shop to finish, need rotating vise.

i will have pictures for each part..

riki,,

decided to finish the part off,,5-4-2012,,i did get it un even, but was winging it, the small end will go down for more oil flow..

owen, and others, i found a great product, RM25, for coolant, cleans and protects.

I had a chemist look it up, specs. he said it take the oxygen out the coolant so rust can't form.
