Input Shaft Bearing
Has anyone ever attempted to replace the inputshaft bearing. i get the bearing on tuesday but i would like to know what im up against. also im getting a kind of ticking noise from the transmission at an idle with the clutch out. when i press it in all the way it goes away. when i accelerate the ticking accells and gets louder. is this the isb?

probly isb, it stops when u push in the clutch because the input shaft stops spining, how many miles? If you could cofidently replace the clutch yourself, you should easily be able to take on a isb job. You should be able to find other threads about this, try takin a look at some of them for more info and input.

Consider if you F it up, then your screwed.
DO not go into without an fsm. There's what 10-15 steps in just opening the case.

That is actually basically what it is, steel marbles or ***** inside of a steel casing. They start to make this noise when the get worn out and sloppy inside of the case and will adventualy come apart into many peices, thats what happened to mine.

I have actually done two of them, my first one i replaced all of the bearings and a few other things. If it is only the one isb then it is not very difficult as long as you take your time and use common sense, and yes i do agree a FSM is a very good idea for your first time.

You split the case.
When i did them i had winter on my side and put the shafts out in the snow for awhile then brought them in and heated the bearing and took them off with ease, put them on the same way, worked great.

Also be VERY careful with the dremel, i have not done this but goon says he has so any ?'s ask him.

gotcha, never did try that method. Though... I don't have any snow here either.

Heres some helpful pics
Here are some pics of what you are going to get into just make sure you keep everything clean and lay it out nicely so you won't lose parts or forget to put it back in. I pulled the tranny and had all the gears brought down to machine shop to get the new bearings pressed on if they don't come with new races I would recomend it.
