I have two gimbal bearing and am trying to decide which to install. One is old style greaseable and the other is the perma-greased sealed version. Any input? I like knowing there is grease in there! :confused:
Thanks for the tips and tricks! I got the Alpha 1 Gen II off today. Gimbal bearing was definitely shot. The issue I have now is the bearing stayed on the shaft and is stuck as stuck can be! Any tips on getting this beast off? I cannot seem to locate a bearing puller with jaws long enough.
I would just like to say THANK YOU for this site/forums. I am attempting to resurrect a 91 Capri and have been able to find answers to most if not all of the questions I have had.
I am now working on the engine and drive (4.3/Alpha1 Gen II) and the first thing I ALWAYS do is obtain the service...
I see posted places that there is a "Adult Sticky" (whatever that is) that will give me access to the manuals and such. Where might that be on this site? I cannot find it for nothing!
