The front balance shaft in my car was real rough, so I was going to go ahead and pull the rear shaft and leave the front in (while in the car). When taking the front cover off, I found that the bearing has completely spun itself from the block.
If I want to remove the front shaft in the car, what are my options?
I'm a little concerned that if I just press a new bearing in, it won't seal because the material has maybe worn away enough. I'm thinking that most/all of the wear is on the bearing though, since it is much softer material. Is this a good enough assumption and should I just press the new bearing in and forget about it?
Thanks for the help!
