Abstract: A disk gang assembly (10) includes a disk gang shaft (30) supported by a standard-mounted disk gang bearing assembly (20) having an inner race (20a) receiving a mounting portion (30m) of the disk gang shaft (30). A non-metallic anti-corrosive shaft liner (50) supported over the mounting portion (30m) between the inner race (20a) and the mounting portion (30m) protects the mounting portion from impacts and from seizure of the inner race (20a) and provides a tight fit between the shaft mounting portion (30m) and the inner race (20a) without need for close manufacturing tolerances. The shaft liner (50) aligns the bearing, spacers and washers relative to the shaft (30) and accommodates slight misalignments of the shaft (30), bearing inner race (20a) and any spacing components (34,36,37,38) between disk blades (32,32a,32b). A split (52) generally along an axis parallel to an axis of the disk gang (30a) shaft facilitates assembly of the liner (50) unto the shaft (30).
