- Yes, and no. The bearing and sleeve appear to be the same, but the BPNW kit does not include the preload spring and the preload strap, or the extra dowels and sliding blocks (from the latest Gunst r

- Hi Kai, Not quite true... Before his bearing was copied w/o his agreement, Joachim Gunst told me that the bearing manufacturer recommended the preload be increased. You may remember the original prel

- Neither Joachim or the guy who copied it produce the actual bearings themselves, and I've had both come through my hands and the bearings themselves are absolutely identical. I do agree though, that

- Kai, and List--More thoughts about preloading...groan... There is no good reason that I can think of why any bearing should last longer when it runs full time. Said another way, why should it fail if

- It was my understanding that the bend in the B&B fingers would interfere with the operation of a larger diameter bearing like the Koyo. Gunst's bearing is small enough to not cause a problem with the

- Something to consider in your search for a new bearing. I still have the original t/o bearing on my transmission. I noticed that it spins very freely as compared to the Gunst bearing. You can "flick

- Don, and everyone else, I'll confirm that, the RHP that came out of my 71 TR6 was very loose feeling and would spin incredibly easily. I decided to put that used RHP back in, since it was not squeaki

- Guess I don't understand that. It would seem a stiff bearing would come up to speed slower and would therefore be more prone to sliding on the fingers and squealing. A loose bearing would come up to

- Don--There appears to be at least two reasons for the squeal we have heard. One is the coming up to speed thingy, and the other is when bearings are protesting having to turn because of dryness, pres
