Hi all, I've got a rumble coming from my gearbox which i thought was a thrust bearing noise. I have been told it's probably the input shaft bearing. Today i have drained the oil and low and behold there are a few needle bearings in the oil. How long in all your opinions have i got before it becomes terminal? I'm supposed to be going to pickering show this week (i live in county durham) will i get there and back? Thanks Darren
