[QUOTE="julien_d, post: 1364417, member: 98751"] Nope. The bearings are a press fit into the case. In order to get them in easily, you can put the bearings in the freezer and heat the cases. Install the seals and crank bearings while the cases are hot and the bearings are cold, this will decrease the amount of interference fit and let it slide in much easier. Let everything come to room temp, and then you can heat your case halves with bearings installed and freeze the crank. This will make it easier to press the crank through the bearings. Make sense? Some of the items you will need flywheel puller case splitter (I used a steering wheel puller) freezer heat gun, or oven IMO it's perfectly acceptable to put the case halves in the oven at about 150 - 175 degrees. They will see that temp in use regularly anyway, and the oven will provide more even heat than you can achieve with a heat gun or torch. [/QUOTE]
