Charlie and Bill,  yes tracy used two needle thrust bearings as I have, but in practice there is nothing to hold the thrust washers either side of  the two bearings.  I just worry about that, but tracy's Box has done thousands of collective hours, so I possibly should throw my worry beads away.  Thanks Neil.

Neil,

If you're looking for the Mazda transmission input shaft bearing, here's a page from the parts manual. If you need the entire manual, email me at ceengland7@gmail.com & I'll send you the pdf.

Gents,  I have suddenly realised that the main bearing on the Mazda
g/box input shaft would have to take 8/9000 RPM.  In my search most
bearings give out at 6,000 RPM.  Does anyone know just what bearing they
use?  Perhaps the number??   I realise i am the optimist. Thanks Neil.
