    Anyone ever installed a input shaft on their own. Broke mine almost the day I ordered my new clutch. I think it got scared lol. Ive done a little reading and it doesnt seem too hard. What else will I need to order along with the input shaft? Retainer?
    thanx

    Got a stock piece for the time being. Got the trans out and apart and what was left of the input shaft. Apparently it had either been low or gotten hot. I changed every fluid when I bought it but dont remember how much cam out of the trans. So bearings were toast. With the new input shaft i did order the bearing race and seal but the bearing that fits inside the input shaft is also toast and the thin roller bearing it rides on has a blue tint to it so not sure where to go from here. What do you guys think?
