For those transmissions that don't have seals and just slingers on the front bearing, is it possible to replace the front bearing with one that is sealed on the side that is pointed out and no seal on the side that points into the transmission case?
Rick, I don't know definitively but it sounds like a great idea. I cant think of any harm. The reason that that type of bearing was not used in "the day" was that it wasn't invented yet.
I would like to hear from some other folks.
Gary, I trust you know these old beasts better than I would claim, I wasn't even a thought in 1961.
