Inspecting my transmission gear plate bearings and i noticed when i spin the clutch bell theres a bit of wobble, what can be done to correct this or do these shafts wear out

Just bought a new set for the new gearplate, i know its the shaft that wobbles because when i hold the clutchbell in my hand i can wiggle the shaft very little up and down. I don't know if this is normal or not

when your plate melted and the clutch bell was hitting - it might have messed up the clutch bell at that time- just a wild guess--

I believe that was it since the inner part of the bell had scrapes rubbing against he clutch when it went inward. since then i been running a new bell and its solid, 0 wobble....

Those clutch bell shafts like to twist and break. You probably caught it right before it broke. I had one snap the shaft on my MT and upon inspection of the shaft of my Dunerunner it was showing signs of twisting. Best to just replace it. Have to be sure the version you have. The V3 clutch bell shaft is different.
