Shaft Center Bearing Assembly
The shaft bearing assembly comprises an extruded aluminium housing, a rubber bush and a ball bearing. The rubber bush is bonded into the housing. An internal metal ring, bonded to the bush, allows for the bearing to be press fitted into it. The rubber bush allows for small deviations in alignment and also absorbs vibrational forces. The shaft bearing assembly is secured by bolts, which are located into BIW bracket.
