Rear wheel bearing turning in housing

I just replaced a rear wheel bearing on a IH-424 because something (besides axle) would turn momentarily when I went from forward to reverse. New bearing came out with axle. The new one was pressed on. The tractor is doing the same thing. I think the whole bearing is turning for a moment when I change directions. Has anyone had this problem? What can you do about it? Any help appreciated.
Thanks.

All the teeth on all gears are in good shape. I guess it could be something needs to be shimmed inside. There's no lost of motion, except a momentary grap after you change from going forward to going in reverse or vice versa.
Thanks

If you are feeling internal movement without axle movement, there is a problem. Lifting an axle and turning a tire back and forth while looking at the gears through a plug, or access plate, will tell you whether it is in the differential, or trans/clutch.
I believe there should be less than 4" of tire rotation before all normal slack and gear backlash is taken up. If it like 10" or more, there is (In my opinion issues that will cost less to fix now than when it is broken beyond what is worn now.
Just my opinion,

BB,

Jack one wheel up and see how much "slop" there is between one axle and the other with the tractor shut off and in gear.

Maybe you have a differential problem going on or a bull wobbled out on it's splines?

Even if a bearing was spinning, you wouldn't be able to feel it.

Dunno,

Allan

In my opinion (without seat of the pants feel for the tractors action) a bearing will not produce "LOST MOTION". The shafts and gears in the powertrain are solid (or supposed to be). If a keway or splines, or drive coupling was allowing several degrees of rotation, hesitation would be noticable. I hope it is simple. Removing a cover, or even a plug might allow viewing teeth that (with one rear wheel in the air) would allow hand moving parts to find the looseness. Good luck,
JimN
