MG MGA - Lay shaft bearings.

I need to rebuild my tranny and was wondering if there has been any problems with the new lay shaft caged needle bearings that have only half the number of rollers as the original bearings. Thanks and have a good day!

John, I don't think they have a good reputation.
I got some originals from Quantummechanics but I think they were the last he had.
The needles themselves can probably be re-used, its the shaft that suffers.

I would not delay in purchasing them. They appear to have bought out a supply of NOS bearings so there is no telling how long their stock will last. My brother bought some for his gearbox, and said they looked OK but the packaging was clearly very old.
