Dodson Motosport Nissan R35 GTR Input Shaft Center Bearing (DMS-1441)

The Dodson Motorsport Input Shaft Center Bearing for the Nissan GT-R R35 is designed to support the drive shaft between the transmission and differential, ensuring smooth gear alignment and proper function. By stabilizing the drive shaft and absorbing rotational vibrations, this bearing prevents excessive movement that could misalign gears, potentially causing the vehicle to slip between gears. A worn or damaged bearing may lead to sudden gear shifts when pressing the clutch, shuddering during acceleration, reduced steering performance, and squealing noises, particularly when decelerating.

Signs of a Worn Input Shaft Center Bearing:
A propshaft center bearing, located near the back of the propshaft before it connects to the differential, plays a crucial role in vehicle stability. Signs of a damaged or worn bearing include squealing noises, particularly during deceleration, along with shuddering on acceleration and reduced steering performance. Recognizing these symptoms early can prevent further drivetrain issues and costly repairs.

A faulty input shaft bearing, meanwhile, can have significant effects on both engine and transmission health. Symptoms of a bad input shaft bearing include strange noises in neutral that change with engine speed, potentially accompanied by vibrations in the gear stick. Persistent noise while in drive, which intensifies with higher RPMs, also points to input shaft issues. More severe symptoms include sudden gear slips when pressing the clutch, caused by excessive shaft movement and gear misalignment. Addressing these issues promptly can help prevent major transmission damage.
