Don,
Do you have any pictures of where the housing cracked? Was it around the
two spreader bolts on top? Just curious about where to keep an eye out.

> Hi Bill,
> Yeah, I did it last year with a little help. But I don't remember a
lot of the details. My reduction unit was off already since my housing had
cracked and I replaced it. but it was more of a job than I expected to pull
the shaft. I found that my front bearing was worn, so I just replaced them
both at the recommendation of my engineer/machinist friend who helped me.
Also removed the inner seals on the bearings, installed a grease fitting and
put a hand full of grease in the cavity to avoid having to do it again in
300 hours. I know we had to knock pretty hard on the shaft and stuff to get
all of it apart and back together. I did that at 235 hours. Now have 318.
All is smooth and cool. Sorry I don't remember more. Thought I would weigh
in since no one has responded. Don
