[QUOTE="brian gains, post: 111083, member: 3153"] putting the shim one side or the other of the bearing doesn't seem to make any odds to me? I thought that as the circlip was seated that all must be located appropriately, however the original 'oil seal' set up does seem a little basic to say the least, As the two spacer rings, one that had snapped and been replaced previously, and 'oil seal' may have compressed I shall look at again. having previously dismissed yje idea that the bearing may have walked I have to concede that this needs to be inspected more thoroughly. By this point the daunting task of wrestling the gearbox out has become straight forward, it's the g*d awful semi fluid grease (and expense) I hate dealing with. This may end up as a winter project as i only want to deal with once and for all. Classic case of "measure twice, cut once". thanks for suggestions, very much appreciated. [/QUOTE]
