Tapered Roller bearings For Trans rebuild
Does anyone know the part number or where to order these bearings. Planning on using them when rebuilding my transmission.
Thanks.
Thanks.
You don't want to do that. That portion of the case isn't designed for the loads the taper roller bearings will put on it. Get the regular roller bearings and set the clearance on the loose side of OEM spec.

I was told the tighter the better? Why the loose side if you don't mind me asking?
Roller bearings don't like thrust, The looser the shaft is (within OEM spec), the less thrust they experience, and the longer they live. This what TRE told me to do when he walked me through assembling my trans. I assemble it per his his instructions and I have not driven an Evo that shifted better at high rpm.
Now, the taper bearings on the output shaft and center diff, those you want to set on the tight side of OEM spec.
