    Where the clocking ring? Also, make sure you use ultr grey between all the mating surfaces between everything. Had mine torn apart this weekend to get rid of the oil leak I was having. Also, take a close up pic of the bearing that goes in the tcase side

    I heard that... Not this year with the new baby boy on the way.. I want to hit up some different trails out here.. Maybe Rauch Creek in PA, few places in Tennessee. This is our last baby so hopefully next year I'll be able to make the MOAB trip.

    Just got off the phone with inchworm... They already put the upgraded bearing in it.. Apparently thats what the hold up was about!!! So no need to break it down..

    Thanks Lump and Ryan for the heads up!!!

    Looks like they are aware of the issue and will now be sending them with the new bearing!

    i'd still pull the rear plate off that connects between the case and clocking ring. just to put ultra grey on the mating surfaces. mine either didnt have a very good job of sealant on it, or none at all. its all good now

    Funny, I called them and they said the bearings were fine with only a small handful of cases where they had issues.

    My bearing -
