steveo29 0 Posted March 21, 2005 what were the bearings like?? my number 1 bearings were shot to hell Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
G60Speed 0 Posted March 21, 2005 Needed replacing, the bearing material on no.1 was just getting down to the backing.. was a lot easier than i thought , once I had got the obligatory 2 x awkward sump bolts out (by the gearbox)! Only hope that when I come to fire it back up, the knocking i had before wasn't the main bearings..? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
