Ken,
Thanks, that make me feel better... I was certain that I checked the needle
bearings for proper fit... I like to think I get that stuff right. I used a
bearing drift tool and tapped them in a little. Maybe I should drive them
farther in. I checked a laygear from a backup gearbox that is apart and those
needle bearings are set all the way home into the recess.
