    Speed Sending Unit Question.

    So while doing my rebuild (http://www.thegsresources.com/_forum...d.php?t=155883) I took apart my Speed Sending Unit Gearbox.
    Everything needs a good cleaning, but seems to be working fine, however I found a single small ball-bearing in between the rubber seal and the Eared Drive-Plate that engages the hub and the gears.

    So my question is... are there supposed to be bearings between the seal and the Drive-Plate or was that just something random that found its way into the gearbox?

    Since it seems these weren't meant to be serviceable, I haven't been able to find a micro-fiche or parts listing to check.

    Thanks!

    I've taken a couple of those apart before to clean & don't remember any ball bearings in there. I just remove that big circlip that holds the tabbed drive on and clean & lube. The little worm drive where the cable attaches can be removed also as i recall if you feel the need.
