you have to pull off the gear box to get at bit of a mission i'm doing mine on sunday might write
a work shop article on it i paid $10or15 for the bearing so it's not an expensive fix just time consuming

I have changed mine 3 times, and each time after the change, it only takes about 4 weeks to start up with that noise again ...

Why bother? ...
