Description
QU10558 Stock Needle Pilot Bearing for Dodge V10 and 1994-up Cummins Diesel Engines with seal lips to both sides. This is the current production replacement Needle Roller Bearing supplied by Dodge. It replaced an earlier version that was only sealed to one side. Pre-lubricated with grease, this bearing works reasonably well with a stock engine, although it will rarely last the life of the clutch. Fits V10 and 1994-current Cummins & flywheels without modification. Can be retrofitted to 1989-'93 trucks if the flywheel is bored. A good choice for the older truck with a stock or near stock engine. USA Made.

Dan the Gear Man® Tech Notes:
Wear
Installation
Tech Note 1: Wear
V10 and 1994-up Cummins Diesel engines had a needle roller Pilot Bearing from the factory. Due to the simple seals used on these Bearings, they tend to lose their grease and fail from lack of lubrication at under 100,000 miles. Once the grease is gone, the Bearing quickly falls apart. Besides chewing up the tip of the transmission input shaft, a failed pilot bearing can cause misalignment of the transmission gears. Most cases of transmission input shaft tooth gear failure are due to a failed Pilot Bearing.
Tech Note 2: Installation
The Bearing must be thoroughly packed with run resistant, high temperature grease before installation.
