I've just pulled the shaft out of my F25 to find no bearings as such no seals can some one give me some clues as to how this should be

The bearing is in the strut (rubber & bronze ) right in front of the prop and the "seal" is right behind the gear box its a packing in the big nut


This may help you on the seal/packing
