Glad you resolved your problem. I wonder though......if there is no bearing left, how did it bind up? Just asking. Rest of the bearing fall out as you pulled the transmission out?

Are you experienced?

it was definately the pilot bearing, there was no bearngs left. I did run into a problem, i broke my blinde hole puller and whats remaining of the pilot bearing. i cant get the rest out. I tried grinding it out and after quite a bit im scared im going to hit the e shaft. any suggestions
Else, grind it out as close as you can with a stone bit (or similar), after that use a softer grinding bit (sand paper roll bit). Here is where a puller would help (again), you need a way to separate both halves of the race using force.

the only suggestion is to use the dremel only in one spot to split the case,, if you go through,, the small area affected will not prevent you using another bearing
these can be a real PITA,, and just keep on going
other alternative is to pull down the engine and replace the shaft

Hailers, when i pulled the transmission out pieces came out and a ton of metal shavings. the only thing left was the case in which the bearings sit in. I
I own a pilot bearing tool kit, i ended up breaking it. So I had no choice but to start grinding away most of its grounded away but its so flush with e shaft im scared to go any further. I tried chiseling it, but the son of a gun wont give way. If I cant get this thing out im getting ready of the car all together. Motor only has 1200 miles on the rebuild
