Message: [QUOTE="Dave_Nevada, post: 1498362, member: 29749"] Yep, the oilite bearings wear out just like anything. That's exactly why I put one in. They wear, NOT the input shaft. I have worked on my fair share of toploaders and it's darned rare to see a bad input shaft. Why? Oilite pilot bearing. The #1 failure in ZF6's is due to that )(!@*#$&$(@# needle pilot bearing. The second is most common cause if the hydraulic clutch system. That system and its 'one size fits all' mentality is just maddening. The ZF6 is a good transmission if you maintain it, and don't try to destroy it with overloads of high torque from the engine. If someone needs to pump their engine up way beyond what it was designed for, maybe they need to get a race car hobby to teach their wallet a lesson or two. HAHAHAHA :pullover::popcorn: Why do you think I have an old skool 65 Ford Galaxie with a 427 side-oiler for a hobby? NEED FOR SPEED. But that topic is for another forum. :thumbup: [/QUOTE]
