Does anyone have a satisfactory explanation for the main shaft second gear top hat bush breaking. I have seen so many broken and all are tension breaks not torsional as would be expected . Geoff Byr

I seem to remember that the flange of the top hat bushing is pre-fabricated separately from the bushing part and then they are swaged (or somehow pressed) together. I think this makes it weak. It mig

I believe the bushes are machined from a casting. I have several with casting marks on the edge of the hat rim. The only plausible explanation I can come up with is that due to the machining process

Why does the top hat bushing need to be one piece? I can see no reason for it. Why not have a bushing like the others and a separate thrust washer? Larry Young == unsubscribe/change address requests

I think that bushing is of sintered bronze and not a particularly good material to start with and has a very sharp machining edge at the bottom the brim of the hat. Some may be of brass and the same

The part can be whatever material you want, but it needs to have the lube grooves in it, for sure. The key to this part is it NOT breaking at the brim of the hat, because once that occurs, the parts

I'm with Bob on this one. I seem to recall that Quantum Mechanics, John Esposito. does make a one piece top hat that will work in a TR3/4 gearbox. Jack == unsubscribe/change address requests to majo

I agree I have rebuild gearboxes by cutting the top hat bush in 2 as you suggest works fine . I just can't figure out the forces which cause it to break the way it does ie its a tension fracture whi
