That's interesting... My order included both the loose needles and the
caged needle bearings.  Will this shaft work since the end has a roller
pin and not the notch?  The transmission has been at a friend's house,
so I do not have the luxury of seeing these parts first hand.

Thanks,
Eric

Eric,

    It's the early/late thing. The later one is a little fatter and they
used loose needles rather than caged. All and all a bit more robust.
Last time I needed one the usual venders had them.

        John F Sandhoff wrote the following back in April, 2003.  I have
just
        experienced the same problem.  How, and perhaps where, do I
obtain the
        correct counter shaft?  At this pace, I am on track for the most
delayed
        tranny rebuild ever.  Fortunately, the wrong part was only $12.

        Thanks,
