Here is a build I started tonight. It is going to be pretty special with an LSD and some billet bits. Even though I am not for billet intermediate plates, I still like the look and this customer had been amassing parts for a long time before he heard my thoughts on them. No biggie. They take good pics (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

What you see here is a 930 pinion bearing, the rare and NLA steel caged input bearing, and a billet plate.

There is no beer, beef jerky, or flatulence haze in the picture. How do we know that this is your workshop and not some stock photo? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif)

With a rennshifter you need to have your adjustments and shift linkage in perfect shape or you will start to erode your gear box. You should not be hitting 1st with a rennshifter, that is what it is expressly set up to prevent with its springs.

The steel caged input shaft may be rare, and it may be NLA, but it was a lower cost replacement/substitute for the brass caged bearing when it appeared on the aftermarket. In fact, the brass one kinda disappeared from the market for a bit back in the late '70s/early '80s. It was never OE, IIRC, and never preferred.

The steel caged bearings were available up to about 5 years ago at some venders. It is a far superior design and does not break as easy as the brass caged nonsense. I have yet to see one fail.

My mechanic had a number of unkind things to say about the brass-caged ones when we did the rebuild. He preferred the steel-caged bearings as well; probably because they were one unit and didn't fall apart as you were trying to install them. (At least, that's the impression that I got from what he was saying.)

The cages and balls can fall out, but the balls are captive in the cage. The main thing is that the steel doe snot shatter and the brass shatters very easy. I have seen more than once where a new one broke with minimal effort (not by me, luckily). That is a $200+ bearing that does this.
