My father-in-laws '53 Super H has been making a noise in the front part of the transmission, We tore it down and found the front bearing as well as the pilot bearing bad.We have the front shaft out.My question is
if there is a little play, about a half inch or so ,in the main or pinion shaft, Do we need to finish tearing it down to get to the rear bearing or is this normal because we have the front shaft out?
