I'm ordering a rebuilt R380 with the HD Rear Support Bearing for my 130. I am seeing if there is any appetite for me selling the old unit here, or if I should return it to Ashcroft for the core charge refund.  My current gear box is sound except for a clatter that has just developed only when coasting (off the gas) in 5th gear.  I've been told that's likely that same bearing.  You may want to just fix what's broken, or do your own rebuild.  Let me know if you're interested, otherwise it's going back to England. Thanks.
