[QUOTE="Baker42, post: 1033456, member: 2703"] Well I'am back. With a new problem,,,,again. I bought a "rebuilt ZF5s47" from an outfit about 200 miles out of town. 90 day warranty. So I pulled my ZF5s42 because of straight up carnage (don't ask). Installed the trans behind my 30,000 mile OFE. Wrked and shifted great for about 200 miles. I did not install a new throw out bearing as mine was only 30000 used. The trans started making a noise like a bunch of marbles in a blender when I turned the truck off the other day. So I pulled the trans (again), installed a new timken throw out and pilot, put everything back together, but it still sounds like ****. It is a little quieter now though. So my question is and I believe this to be the case. How hard is it to replace the input shaft bearing on these transmissions? And is it something that is not too hard? The truck still shifts real nice, the other trans which is now broke in half used to grind almost all gears. So I have no core. I'am pretty pissed because the drive to return it. It has a slight whining noise in neutral and sounds like god awful when you kill the ignition but otherwise performs flawlessly. What could cause this? I don't believe the bearings had enough preload on them. Does that sound accurate?:wtf: [/QUOTE]
