All driving gear wheels of the transmission are located on the input shaft. The input shaft is a solid shaft and runs on one ball bearing and one roller bearing. Because of this mounting the input shafts runs without preload and therefore needs no adjusting shims. The input shaft seal nearest the clutch is pressed into the clutch housing.
