That surface actually looks very good ! I would not change that shaft....
And I think I would have left the bearings if they were not making noise.
It's not an easy call on stuff that takes a lot of work to get to. It's the same reason
when doing timing belts on honda's they always say do all the oil seals
and water pump - because your "in there". I left one water pump in my
wife's honda for 200K and it started leaking out the weep hole by the time
The next T-belt was due. So now I do it on the 100's with the belt.
That guy with all the tools laid out on the bench, I don't have 1/3 of those
fancy tools when I do a job like that, so don't be intimidated. That bearing
puller for example, I have made soooo many tools from threaded rods from
the hardware store.... Pullers of all kinds can be made from stuff at the hardware
store..... I have made lots of tools for those jobs as well. I got lots of steel, and a
welder, so there is no tool you can't make at that point.
