I'm in the middle of a manual swap in my F250. The 200,000 mile transmission I picked up has quite a bit of wear on the input shaft where it will ride in the pilot bearing. I knocked down the high spots with some sandpaper, but there is still enough wear that I'm concerned it will be noisy. Is there anything I can do about this that doesn't require pulling the transmission apart? Or should I just run it and see how it goes? If it's a disaster, pull it back apart.
I've heard of speedi sleeves, but I don't know much about them. I thought they were intended for sealing surfaces. Not sure how they would handle this application.
