[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 108986, member: 82"] I didn't think these machines had a gear box, i thought it was just a motor carrier that has 2 bearings and a seal that the motor mounts to. If this is the case, i don't see the repair bill being too nasty for parts at least, labor will add up though. It depends on if you have helpers and gear to do the job if you can tackle this job your self. If the carrier bearings are gone, you will need to pull the old ones and install new ones, i did this at home without any special tools, so it can be done, it just depends on if you're up for the task, Bearings will run you i think, about 50-100 a piece, if you do both sides like you really should, that's 400, then seals, say anothe 50 each, 500 then quite a bit of oil for the chain case, say another 200. So right there is 700 in parts. If you think you can get helpers for it, i'd give it a go. [/QUOTE]
