I need a new ISB so I found BaulyCivic's how to post on replacing it. I took the bearing out of the transmission and it looks a little different than the one that I got from the honda dealer. The new one has 9 smaller ***** in the bearing while the one i took out has 8 bigger *****. I don't know if anyone will be able to tell for sure from my pics but please tell me if my new bearing is the same thing just made differently. maybe I'm just being paranoid but I don't know. Thanks for the help.

side 1 (new bearing on the left)


side 2 (new bearing on the left)


they seem to be the same thickness


and the same diameter (new bearing on the top)



thanks in advance to any helpful/informative answers.

 

its probably the same thing just a newer design

 

umm bro..
the only difference i can see here is that your old one has oil in it and the new one doesnt, wich is def normal.
wich equals no difference.

But in the first pic looks like there is rails on the old on. But its no diff, just a lil change in design.

 

jus as long as it sleeves on ok then you should be alright, like everyone else said, jus newer design, besides that, it looks like the same size to me. gluck!

 

looks the same to me.

 

on has the engraving the other doesn't !

 

Someone probably figured out a better design. I work on airplanes and its like that all the time.

 

its also possible they outsource for parts from another vendor.

 

If the bearing fits rock it....

Most likely they found the 8 bearing design just wasn't working out right, they do track how many times they have to replace em under warranty, and then if they need to correct a problem they just do rolling changes. Maybe the new design will last longer for you.

(That's my impression anyways)

 

thanks to everyone for the confirmation. its what i had origionally suspected but then again, i am very paranoid about screwing something up on my car.

 

One has 9 bearings the other has 8 bearings...
