Can anyone teach me how to pull out bearings from the crankcase. Dunerunner bearing locked. Pics/Video would be great if any. Thanks :(
 
i normally just use a socket that is the same size as the outer bearing race and a rubber mallet. once you pull the snap rings the drive out easy.

Heat your oven to 300 degrees (f) put in the case for 15 minutes. Remove. Pop bearings out.


For the rubber seals, I always just use a pair of pliers and carefully nudge them up to the side.


Freeze your new bearings for about 15 minutes and they will fall right into the hot crankcase nice and easy.

If I stuck my engine in the oven my family would be sitting at the dining room table, knives and forks in hand, asking why the potroast smells like oil.
 
TeamFastEddy has a video series about rebuilding these engines.

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8Y_Cfur3mY&NR=1]Link[/ame] (Skip to about 5:15 for seal/bearing installation) This extends into video five of the series. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P8rdvTFh1qc&feature=related]Link[/ame]


Also, make sure any and all debris is cleaned out before you rebuild it. It'd be a waste to install new bearings/seals and have the engine fail due to remaining debris.
