[QUOTE="whenfoxforks-ruled, post: 1285053, member: 73147"] Take blue machinist dye, paint the side and bottom faces. Scribe a line across both halves with a machinist's square. Press apart. Install the new pin in one halve. Put all the parts in and line up the marks. Put the proper feeler gauge between the thrust washer and crank halve and press. Check the run out on a lathe or similar precise set up. That is the part I hate, breaking loose the press fit. A v block set up would be sweet. Place all the parts in a jig and press. Sometimes I have the sneaking idea to spot weld them when the press is loose. In my opinion, once that press fit is spun for alignment, it is easier to go back from abuse or sudden load changes on the crank. Eric Gorr does my cranks. [/QUOTE]
