No problem with the pictures. That is a good repair on the messed up holes. I bought the bearings from Eastern Bearing and they are Timken's. I also wanted to post the bearing numbers if anyone else was interested in changing theirs. I personally do not want to take the thing apart again. So I might have put a little too much grease in the CHAIN case. I am so sorry I'm not a professional cub cadet/IH mechanic and I might have misunderstood gearbox for chain case. Some people squirt oil on their chains, I have corn head grade 0 grease on mine. I can see just centering the shafts with the collars but for me it was easier to use spacers like from the factory. They butt up against the welds holding the sprockets on and done.
On a lighter note……..
I bought a couple new felt seals from Messicks to slip under the dust covers. They were a little pricey, yea I could have bought felt and cut it out but what do you do with a leftover hunk of felt? My dust covers were a little messed up in the middle so a little touch up work and all set. I evenly tightened the 3 dust cover bolts down, the felt made the shaft turn a little stiff but I oiled it and everything seems acceptable...to me anyway.
