R380 gearbox bearings

raywin · Feb 5, 2018

Looking for a bit of help from anyone who may have rebuilt an R380 box, does anyone know where I might get a list of the bearings needed?
I want to source my own bearings to be sure what quality they are.

It's a 2001 TD5 but don't know if that helps. Better check tomorrow if it's not snowing here,

ukc8l main shaft to pininion
ftc3371 rear main shaft
stc1628 center main shaft
tzz100190 pinion
tzz100200 center lay shaft
ftc248 front lay shaft
ftc2385 rear lay shaft
if you add g on the end you should get timken which are the proper bearings except the to most rear which are roller bearings and were rhp

j suffix generally 300tdi era have a different pinion and center lay shaft bearing these were made bigger for later k and l boxes as r380s had issues with pinion bearing failing, but i think that was more down to lack of oil changes, as you still find well service early boxes doing fine even if if a general rebuild was needed and the later boxes still failed
