[b][/b]HELP! Rebuilding a 35 EC transmission and having trouble finding a caged needle bearing that fits on the front end of the main shaft (I call it the output shaft), and into the rear of the input shaft. I have all parts to rebuild except this bearing. I ordered part number B-12 shown in the Filling Station catalog for the 35 standard, but the bearing is too small and will not fit my main shaft. Main shaft measures 0.688" (11/16") and the old bearing out of my transmission fits the shaft and inside the input shaft. Anyone know what I have or where I can look for the proper caged bearing to replace with. The outside diameter of the bearing needs to be very close to 1" I measure the bore 0.998". Any help??

Finally believe I have the problem sorted out! Filling Station had an unmarked (and wrong size) bearing setting on the shelf with the correct bearings. They checked sizes of my old bearing against what they had in stock and should have the correct bearing on the way. Thanks to Steve at Filling Station taking the time to help me on this problem. Should have another chevy transmission back on the road soon!
