Be sure to compare bolt lengths between the rubber ball design and the original one. Sometimes - depending upon the manufacturer- the rubber ball bolts are longer and run out of threads when the correct clamshell parts are installed. The bolts CAN be changed without removing the bell housing. Bend the tips of a long needle nose pliers at a 90-degree angle so that you can grab the bolts beneath their heads and lift/install them through the hole at the bottom of the bellhousing. Some guys use thin fishline threaded through the cotter pin holes in the bolts to remove and install the new bolts that way. Or you could use a die and cut threads up higher on the bolt shanks.

Along with A-3440-S would you need to also use the A-3440-W shim to take up the slack of a worn ball ?
