Hmmm, maybe I am wrong here. In the history of the TR tranny three types of
countershaft bearings were used. Needle, Shell, and Caged. I believe that
the needle is the earliest and that is the loose bearing that needs to be
held in place with grease while the tranny is assembled. Next is shell
bearings
in which the bearing rides on the shaft and the outer surface of the bearing
is completely enclosed. The later is caged bearings which, look like a
cage, in which the bearing in exposed in the inner and outer surface. The
names
are very descriptive.
I am under the impression that all ride directly on the countershaft. My
experience has been with early trannys; therefore needle and shell but am
familiar with caged bearings.
If this is wrong help me out here.
Thanks
