    Default T50 - loose input shaft

    Hey guys

    The input shaft is sloppy on one of my T50s. I disassembled it to replace the front bearing assuming that was the problem, but having pressed it off it looks to be OK?

    Any other thoughts on what the issue could be?

    hmm mine moves a little but not that much. remember that it probably isn't moving a great deal at the bearing itself, much like backlash on a diff i guess.
