input shaft bearings shot. could poor grounding be the culprit?
my input shaft bearings in my 95 civic lx' transmission are bad. i just recently noticed that the ground cable from the tranny to the body is only about half connected. could this be why they went bad? thanks

omg... sorry to laugh, but you made my night.
and i concur, ground wire has nothing to do with inputshaft bearings.

Serious question: How did you make this correlation? I mean, you obviously heard this from someone? Explain.

haha. well thats what i thought. i thought that the bearings went bad cause i have 149000 miles on the factory transmission, and beat the crap out of it, cause the car was $600. i noticed that the ground wire was almost completely severed, and my boss at the shop where i work said that the electricity going through the bearings could destroy them. didnt make sense to me, but i didnt argue. bought a new ground strap none the less. got an si tranny waiting to be installed. just wondering if it was a remote possibility. it is funny. thanks for the insight.

I know what your talking about but its HIGHLY unlikely, your going to get better transfer from where the trans is bolted to the block, theres less resistance there.
