[Fot] Fwd: TR6 inner shaft bearing

Tue Apr 14 06:58:21 MDT 2020

 Yeah when a simple straightforward seal replacement turns into a nightmare job due to a stuck flange...Again, it's not the correct/preferred method, but considering that there isn't normally any significant axial load on it, assembled with a little loctite green will keep the bearing in place, and it'll get the job done in those cases where a big $$ axle & flange are at risk of being damaged.They usually come apart OK but every now & then I get one that won't.If the press doesn't pop it, sometimes a heat flange to cherry & quench will, but I'm sure that doesn't do any good for the metallurgy...
Glen.

Hi Glen,that is explaining the issue. It seems that lot's of these bearings have been replaced in that way by now!Marcel

 There's a slight step on the shaft that prevents inward movement of the bearing, relative to the shaft; if your shaft slid out, that step has been removed.I've run into this several times, it's done in a last-ditch effort to change the bearing when the hub can't be removed.Glen
 Note... I'm not advocating this as a correct repair procedure

I discovered a couple of times that the bearing did move on the shaft by as much as 1/2". As a result the shaft had moved outwards by that amount. Is that common? Is there a simple fix?MarcelAan: "Jay Galbreath" <tr4jay at gmail.com>

the flange fits on a tapered shaft which is the bear...the bearing doesn't take much at all...if you do happen to find a shop that can get it apart for you make sure you make a note of the bearing position on the shaft...take a measurement before you press it off for reference. I use a 50 ton press to get the flange apart...usually takes at least 20 tons...sometimes more...always wrap a towel around the assembly...dont think I've ever had one i couldn't get apart.

Hah!  I just attempted that this week. The two stub shafts would NOT press out even with 10 tons and red hot from my firewrench. Scott Harper at Team Triumph came to my rescue and went through his stash to find a couple that did press out for him. So give him a call if you can't break them apart. Good Luck!  Jay     WPTA
