| Post subject: | Issue with Trans Input Shaft |
While riding at WindRock, my buggy started making a terrible noise while shifting. I dropped the engine this afternoon and found a bunch of metal shavings in the Glad Nut.. Upon further inspection, I noticed that the Input Shaft was completely rounded off and worn down. I am running a 6 Rib trans with a 6 Rib bell housing.. What would cause the input shaft to rub? Should I just trim down the input shaft.. |

The pivot bearing was shredded into pieces.. I will go ahead and replace the Gland Nut and take a look at the bell housing.. Hopefully, there is nothing else wrong.. |

make sure you get the gland tight enough, ive seen a couple of ruined cranks and flywheels lately due to the nut not being tight enough

You should probably measure the end play as well.And trim the input shaft a touch. |
