Input shaft to mainshaft pilot -- Open Roller cage - no number found - have not found- .875" ID x 1.25" ODx 1.5 " long ---- I need to clean up the mainshaft pilot so I will lathe it to .75" and hope to use a Koyo HJ-122016 open needle roller bearing. It has an outer case that may solve any female input shaft issues. .75"x1.25"x1" long
Input shaft bearing -- FAFNIR 209K
Rear Mainshaft --- New Departure 3307
Front Countershaft --- Hyatt ORB 1206
Rear Countershaft ---- Hyatt ORB 1207
Feel free to update or correct this list and add any cross references, etc.

Should be able to pull it easily with a pilot bushing puller. Again I will lathe the mainshaft pilot to .75". https://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/showthread.php?p=8172090#post8172090There are probably some of the originals nos open roller cage bearing out there. Has anyone removed the rear mainshaft bearing -- new departure 3307--- with a bearing seperator and not destroyed it? Or does the shaft snap ring push off with the bearing?

Gray?
If it was casting color I may clear coat it. | | |
