I suck at takng picture! The above pics show the rusty crud on the cages. BTW, the bearings feel like new when turned. The crud will wipe off. The other pics show that the nuts corners rounded over when it rode on top of the prop shaft. Also the shafts threads are pulled.
My main conscern is the fit of the pinion gear on the verticel shaft. It doesn't fit real tight, but not sloopy loose either. So don't know if the gear splines have worn from being able to move on the shaft. No visable wear marks on either spline.
