reb78 Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 How important is it to change the bearing raceways when changing the bearings and input gear on the transfer box? I've changed the bearings and input gear, but the raceways looked good so i left them. Now someones mentioned that i should have changed the races as well - i suppose they wear with the old bearings but do you really need to replace them? Does changing the front race mean dropping the box? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimAttrill Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 You shouldn't really change half a bearing. Both the front and rear bearings can be changed without removing the box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mean the bearings - i've changed both of these. I mean the tracks that the bearings run in once the input gear is fitted and turning...
