replace bearing in support shaft

hello,
I would like to replace bearing in support shaft. I have a question, is it possible replace only bearing? in service they told me that I need to replace everything, whole shaft. it's a little strange for me that I have to exchange all insted one element
best regards

Maybe it all comes as a complete balanced unit?
Take it apart, fit new bearing, you might end up with a vibration, possibly??

Looking at the parts on microcat it looks like a compleate unit with only fixings that are available seperately. I thinking the prop is balanced at the factory. Thumbs Up

Might be worth taking the drive shaft off and taking it to a specialist, they will have the means to balance the shaft after repairing it. Tangiers Orange - gone, missing her

+1 on what Andy131 said. Repairing the propshaft is not difficult as long as you have a tool to "stake" the joint but balancing is the tricky bit. There are specialists out there.

There was a guy on fleabay selling new shafts for £125....maybe he still has some.

Failing that, here is a slightly overpriced second hand one
