833 OD mainshaft fix tutorial

[RonnieB883]

Hey, all. I initially installed a 833OD transmission into my /6 Demon and had to take it out after groaning and rumbling in all gears but 3rd(direct drive). Turned out to be a very worn input bearing that had worn the mainshaft also. I Had the input bearing replaced and researched a needle bearing that would work and fixed the. 15K miles later and the tranny is still going strong (Daily driver).
