What I thougt might be the throw out bearing was actually the input shaft
bearing on my 98 ram 4x4.  Does anyone know of where I can order just the
input shaft bearing instead of buying the complete rebuild kit?  I have done
a few searches but havent really produced anything.  The local tranny shops
will only sell the complete kit wich runs anywhere from $180 to $250
depending on who I call.  Thanks for any help anyone can provide.

Which trans do you have, NV3500 or NV4500?

Do some research online, I'd bet someplace has just the bearing. BUt I'd
also take a look and see what all you need, since a bad bearing means metal
through the trans.

It has the NV2500 tranny, There were some fine shavings in the tranny oil
after I drained it, I also flushed it out and it seems as if everything else
is in good shape.

Are you sure about the trans ID?

No such beast.  You may have a Ram 2500, in which case you have an NV4500
transmission.  If you have a Ram 1500 (1/2 ton), then you have an NV3500.
These were the only two manual transmissions used in '98, regardless of
truck configuration.
