Hi Dusty, well the cab was designed for a 4 speed(with cover etc)and now with the original shaft being looked at by a drive line shop they have told me that they couldn't find out the origins of the steady bearing and bracket. the outside diameter is 1.625 so the bearing you mentioned doesn't work, they are ready to machining a wider mating surface for a new bearing and I would make up a mounting bracket to set up the correct position. I would say thanks for the effort as i'm strongly considering this option so that I can go back to these experts if I have a problem. Thanks again, good luck with any of your projects
