Layshaft Bearing for the Series manual gearbox. It supports the layshaft (countershaft) within the gearbox casing, allowing the constant-mesh gear cluster to turn freely under load.

A worn layshaft bearing typically shows as gearbox whine, end-float in the layshaft or rough gear selection, and is renewed during a gearbox rebuild.

Frequently asked questions

What does the layshaft bearing (RTC1412) do?

The layshaft bearing supports the layshaft, also called the countershaft, inside the Series manual gearbox. It lets the constant-mesh gear cluster spin freely under load, which keeps gear engagement smooth and quiet.

Which Land Rovers does the layshaft bearing fit?

This layshaft bearing fits Series I (1948-1958) and Series II/III (1958-1984) manual gearboxes. It doesn't suit the 109 Stage One V8, so confirm your gearbox type before ordering.

What are the signs the layshaft bearing needs replacing?

A worn layshaft bearing typically shows as gearbox whine, end-float in the layshaft, or rough gear selection. Left unchecked, play in the bearing accelerates wear on the gear cluster.

Is fitting the layshaft bearing a DIY job?

Replacing the layshaft bearing typically means stripping the gearbox, so it's usually done during a full rebuild rather than as a standalone job. It's generally a specialist task needing the box out of the vehicle.
