Today I thought id do a bit more on my A35 Build. Once I had made sure that both cases were clean and free from metal shavings from the case matching I pushed in the new crank seals.
The next thing to do was install the new bearings on the Top Racing crank. I used a heat gun to get the bearings really hot so they expanded then I used a some pliers to drop them onto the crank.
Below is a shot of the crank with the bearings installed.
Next I needed to heat up the cases so the crank with bearings would fit. I then realised that I would have to remove the seals as I didn't want them to melt.
Above is a shot of the crank installed in one case with the gasket in place.
After heating up the other case I fitted them together and bolted them up. Once the cases had cooled I pushed in the crank seals from the outside.
The next thing to do was to install the gasket and then the piston on a new roller bearing.
More to follow soon!
