Front and Rear Housings

Inspect
1. Bearing race bore, for wear, scratches, or grooves: if counter shaft bearing race bore is worn or damaged the rear housing MUST be replaced.
2. Bushings, for scores, burrs, roundness, or evidence of overheating.
3. Case for cracks, threaded opening for damaged threads, mounting faces for nicks, burrs, or scratches; if case is cracked, it must be replaced.
4. Machined mating surfaces for flatness. Check with a straight edge.

Important
- If scratches, grooves, or scoring cannot be removed with a soft stone or crocus cloth replace the component.
- Clean up damaged threads with correct size tap.
