[QUOTE="greg brillus, post: 132868, member: 597"] Check there are no burs or nicks on the shaft/splines.........Good idea to check the fit of a new sprocket first as these can be a tight fit........The output shaft should not be too tight passing into the bearing, problem is if it is too tight it will most certainly push the output bearing to the left side if you have to use too much force to remove it........this is quite common, if you have to linish the shaft down a small amount then so be it. I've had some that were way too tight and almost impossible to insert the shaft without major amounts of force, this including the sprocket as well. Genuine parts are usually pretty good, it's some of the aftermarket stuff you need to watch.......... [/QUOTE]
