    1jz input shaft bearing question

    Update, i got an email from Aaron at Driftmotion, It appears i was just sent the wrong bearing, this on was for the serpentine tensioner. I just thought i had something odd. Driftmotion is legit, great customer service. seems this was just a mixup.

    1jz input shaft bearing question

    Anyone else ever run into this? i read that they were all the same, 7m, 2j, 1j.. ordered mine from drift motion, and it is way wrong. The outer diameter is wrong and so is the inner.. I need to replace this bearing while the engine is out.. any info or help would be greatly appreciated..

    Boho I'm still 4 bolt. I've sourced a 6 bolt and will be doing that shortly. I wouldn't think they should be breaking either but I broke two. So I don't know. I'll see how this holds.
