Dwayne and other R62 or R72 operators, Get a copy of Gleaner Main Tab n 0028 from your dealer. It will give you some points to check on your machines. One of them is the torque on that large nut on end of mainshaft which is to be torqued to 600 ft.lbs. and checked from time to time untill it holds that torque. If that would of been done the bearing would of never eroded away the shaft. There was never a program on that bearing but that bulliton does point to another bulliton that suggested to get that torque and retorque imformation to the operators. There is one more spot that you should check the torque that isn't in the bulliton and that is left hand mainshaft bolt and it should be 350 ft.lbs. Hope that helps you out. Dan
