Auxiliary shaft bearings

[raff]

Anybody install auxiliary shaft (jackshaft) bearings with the engine still installed (and trans removed, of course)?? Are the front and rear bearings different on a 2002 4.0 sohc?

I’m at the same place with the engine out. Debating the new bearings wouldn’t push them out if they were on the end of a shaft and hammered out and in at the same time but it might bend them. I was quoted 50$ at the machine shop but then I would have to load the whole block up and take it to them. The book says to take it to the shop but even the book doesn’t have everything. I would like to know the answer too. Mine aren’t that bad I might just run them for awhile.
