the crank has to be pulled in not pushed from what ive been told. So what i did was get the bearing ligned up and used the flywheel and stator to pul the crank in. Just put the nut on the end of the crank and draw it up,you will run outta thread after a bit. I put 2- 9/16 short sockets under the flywheel. If you try to press it in you could pinch the two crank halfs together which i was told could seize your connecting rod.
also i would lay the right side case on an empty bucket so your shafts dont push out and go from there. troy told me to tap all the shafts with a rubber hammer to make sure there all the way in,otherwise you could crack the cases
well i got it together hopefully its right , im pretty sure it is!! i got the crank by using dry ice on the bearing dropped right in!! ill have it all together this week and i'll give a ride report, i appreciate your help 1 badazz 700
Good luck!!
