Seems like this shouldn't be so hard. This isn't THE common failure on 98-02 Accords, but it still seems like A common failure.

I believe I just need the taper bearings (and associated races and shims) for the diff assembly shown torwards the bottom right.

That's in addition to a rebuild kit. Trans has typical slippage issues (mild), but the big problem is that it has a roar from the output. Doesn't matter what gear. Sound is the same if coasting in neutral.

I'm guessing I probably want to be sure to get the countershaft bearing, as well...actually...could all the noise be from that damn thing, anyway?

LOL, random brainfart moment- that's the pinion gear on the countershaft (part 676), right? So the bearing (254) is spinning and under load any time the car is moving, right?

Anyway, I know, I sound like I shouldn't be tearing down this trans. I think I'll manage, though, I've done enough non-Hondas and will be sure to have a manual on hand.

So, back to original question: source for bearings? Does anyone offer a whole kit?

 

1998 accord EX 2.3 BAXA trans. I used Precision International brand rebuilds kit, it came with every seal, friction and steel disk $209.00 replaced the torque converter also $129.95 Trans filter $14.03. All parts came from Dacco Transmission parts here locally. I didn’t have to replace any bearings, but you can get them at the attached link.

After watching some YouTube vids, I replaced the Converter charge reg pressure reg valve, it has a built in by-pass valve incase the valve was to get stuck (Sonnax 98892-04K I think it was $114.00). I bought and used Bench Buddy brushes in all the valve body valve bores, 4 brush pack $28.00. Disassemble everything to clean it out good. I found clutch material everywhere.

I attached a YouTube vid that’s good to watch, the part about the reg valve is at 5:30sec.
