    Abstract: A method of setting a bearing within a housing and a bearing cavity is disclosed. The method includes threadably advancing a threaded bushing by rotating the threaded bushing in a first rotational direction and identifying a point of contact when the threaded bushing initially contacts the bearing. Subsequently, the threaded bushing is rotated in the first rotational direction by a first predetermined rotational amount to further threadably advance in the first rotational direction so that the threaded bushing exerts a target preload on the bearing, or the threaded bushing is rotated in a second rotational direction by a second predetermined rotational amount to threadably advance the threaded bushing in a second axial direction that is opposite the first axial direction to create a target clearance between the threaded bushing and the bearing, or the threaded bushing is not further rotated to cause line-contact between the threaded bushing and the bearing.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein are a shaft assembly having a dry well and a gearbox incorporating the shaft assembly. The shaft assembly may include a housing having an opening and a lubricant reservoir. A tubular member may be fixed in the opening and extend above a surface of lubricant that collects in the lubricant reservoir during operation. At least one sealing member may be positioned between the tubular member and an inner wall defining the opening. A solid shaft may extend through the tubular member and have an outer diameter that is smaller than an inner diameter of the tubular member, thereby defining a dry well between the solid shaft and the tubular member. A bearing mount may be arranged about the tubular member and may be removably connected to a gear associated with the solid shaft. A method of assembling a gearbox incorporating the shaft assembly is also disclosed.
