Ok, I was looking in the manuel and I see mainshaft and countershaft bearings, but no pilot and throw out bearings. I guess was that they are the same just named different, so I randomly typed stuff on google and it didnt help at all and just confused me more! I also searched mainshaft and countershaft bearings and nothing came up.

Are they the same, different or have all four in the tranny, and if they are the same which is which? mainshaft = pilot etc...??

 

anyone?

 

pilot & throwout bearings are not inside the transmission, the throwout bearing is on the outside facing the flywheel.

the pilot bearing is in the middle of the flywheel.

edit: i believe the helms manual refers to the throwout bearing as the release bearing, and the pilot bearing as the flywheel bearing?
