The transmission in my 44 H rumbles a bit in neutral but I think this is normal, as I hear similar noise in others. If you hear transmission noise above the engine noise, that would seem excessive to me.

I haven"t gotten all the bearings out of the M yet, but I believe that there are two on each axle, two on the main drive gear and another in the casting between the differential and transmission, two on the countershaft, one rear PTO bearing, two pulley bearings (although you probably won"t need to change those since you are not likely to use anything belt driven), and two pinion bearings. So there may be 15+ bearings to replace.

If you get the mainshaft and countershaft out, its not too tough (just heavy) to get the bull and pinion gears out, so I would do it all at once. I"m taking Bob"s advice and swithcing sides on the pinion and bull gears to get a new surface.
