I've been working on getting the NV4500 rebuilt, and converted to 4wd. I just finished assembling the back side of the new fully splined 4wd mainshaft and went to install the rear bearing expecting it to be "tight" and the bearing fell into place!!
I measured my old 2wd mainshaft where the bearing sat and it measure out to 1.877". The new mainshaft bearing surface measures 1.874" and the ID of the new bearing is 1.875".
Any suggestions on what I can do to fix this issue...or should I try and get a replacement mainshaft from the company I bought it from....I bought it months and months ago so I'm sure there will be no warranty, or exchange.
Anyone else run into this issue before?
