Layshaft bearings


Recommended Posts

I'm helping a friend with his gearbox rebuild, TR5, it was dismantled some 10 years ago, dont see any real damage anywhere, the original layshaft is good, but which bearings are best, the caged ones with the small rollers or the open type with the larger rollers, the surface in the layshaft appears to be un damaged.  The gearbox number CD6509.

My friend had ordered 2 new bearings long ago, for the top shaft, front and rear, but these have much deeper outer bearing rings with smaller ball bearings compared to the ones that came out, will these be ok to use or should I find some like the originals, marked RHP A  MJ11/4N? The bearing numbers on the new ones are County R058391  marked for TR4 centre bearing, made in India  stamped RMS10 NR from Limora.

Any help would be much appreciated,

John
