What specific parts or part numbers did you order? Did you order that bearing directly from Andover Norton or did it come from one of their parts suppliers? Edit: The bearing at the drive side end of the layshaft should ideally, be a roller bearing (and that's what AN should have sent you as part 067110*) or the 6203 TB bearing that Mick shows in the gearbox DVD. Do not fit the brass cage Portuguese 6203 bearing, this is the bearing that fails prematurely. I don't know how or why AN has sent you that bearing.
*(PM sent to ZFD)
C3 means the bearing has more than the standard amount of internal clearance.

Shimming the gearbox layshaft is an upgrade, it was never done by the factory (as far as I know?) so you need to buy Isolastic shims.
