I am going to try Applied, down south of the airport. I have heard they can match any bearing.

There was not a shim in either of the transmissions. i thought about finding a metric washer or something to shim the play between the bearing and the small c-clip. But that wont help the play between the inner side of the bearing and the input shaft. The larger C-clip keeps the bearing from going into the transmission. Since this new bearing is .040" shorter in that dimension, theres .040" play inside of the tranny.
