Honda Passport Pilot Bearing

The Honda Passport Pilot Bearing is located in the crankshaft or flywheel and its main job is to center and stabilize the transmission input shaft, which is responsible for gear changes to remain smooth and power to transfer without wasteful friction. Across the life of the Passport, the majority of manual versions rely on this small part to prevent shaft wobble which would otherwise lead to noise, heat, and hard shifts, and to maintain the precise alignment that the Passport drivetrain demands of Honda. The Pilot Bearing does just that with the shaft turning on polished races or an oil-soaked bronze surface that separates metal parts with a thin film and drastically reduces drag. Early manuals tended to use a sintered bronze bushing style Pilot Bearing; minute pores in the bronze hold lubricant giving the shaft quiet guidance without separate rollers. When higher shaft speeds and combined radial and axial loads became a design priority, later Honda manuals switched to a ball style Pilot Bearing, whose hardened balls roll between inner and outer races to evenly distribute loads and handle faster rotation. The practical difference is that the bushing version is more for simplicity and self-lubricating reasons, whereas the ball version has a greater load capacity and a longer life when drivers tow or climb. Regardless of style, Honda specifies inspection whenever the gearbox comes out as a rough or loose Pilot Bearing can cause the Passport to chatter during take-off and resist shifting.

Honda Passport Pilot Bearing Parts Questions & Experts Answers

  • Q: How to inspect and replace the clutch pilot bearing on Honda Passport?
    A:
    The clutch pilot bearing is a ball type bearing fitted into the rear of crankshaft, mainly taking the load of the front of the transmission input shaft. It should be inspected and replaced if necessary, at time when other clutch components are removed from the engine. If the engine had been disconnected from the vehicle, then any of the steps that are out of relevance has to be neglected. Start as follows, by pulling off the transmission and the clutch parts. You should take time and gently clean the bearing surface with a clean piece of cloth, you should then examine the bearing for signs of wear, scoring or any other form of damage using a torch in order to get a clear view of the bearing. Make sure the pilot bearing rotates freely and quietly; if that contact surface of the transmission input shaft is scarred or eaten away, replace the bearing. It can also be done with a slide hammer and internal puller attachment or a solid steel bar of slightly smaller diameter than the bearing, a piece of wood or a socket with a fixed bolt. Measure the bar and check for its fit by inserting it into the bearing and should not be very loose. Use a lot of grease to fill the bearing and the region behind the bearing in the crankshaft recess in a bid to remove air. Pass the bar through the bearing bore and tap it lightly the grease will go to the back side of the bearing and be expelled. For installation, apply oil on the outer surface of new bearing and then by using a hammer and a socket corresponding to the OD of the bearing forcing it to fit the recess. Lubricate the bearing with lithium base grease of NLGI NO 2 and remove any excess grease that may get into contact with clutch lining. Last, replace the clutch components, transmission and every other part as well that was unduly removed in order to get access to this pilot bearing.
