Car Forum / Land Rover Cars / October 2004series gearbox technical question
whey hey, look at me getting all technical...... ive stripped my series 3 suffix D gearbox and the mainshaft bearing that came off was stamped with 4 circles, i take it this is to denote the bearing is manufactured to extremely tight tolerances, the new bearing which is a brit part has C3 stamped on. which i take it would relate to 3 circles. so am i putting an inferior bearing back in, should i get a C4 bearing or doesnt it matter. hope someone can help me before tommorow as i cant wait to re-build it and stick it in to see if it works ok. knowing my luck the transfere box will be buggerd. TIA andy > whey hey, look at me getting all technical...... > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > so am i putting an inferior bearing back in, should i get a C4 bearing > or doesnt it matter. C3 is the amount of clearance inside the bearing - C3 is "more than standard" and is normal for gearbox bearings.

The end with the recessed splines goes towards the 3rd gear. This end also has thicker teeth on the outside than the other end. Alex |
