    Loosefit with bearing. You will feel a wear "step" on spigot.

    Pulled the bearing out of the freezer and let it warm up, it's not what I would call a tight fit, but ita not loose either, more like a slip fit. Unfortunately, the trans slipped off my harbor fright special jack, luckily it only fell half a foot so no cracked housing, put it in gear and it doesn't seem to catch any wear so fingers crossed no internal damage.
