| Post subject: | need main bearing help |
I am finally getting to put the motor together and ran into a glitch. I have two sets of Clevite 77 bearings and intended to full grove the mains. When I started to put it together I noticed that the notch is in a slightly different location on the berings which cause the inserts in the cap to stick out a little from under the cap. If I change to the smooth insert it lines up real good. Also the thrust bearing will not fit in the cap at all unless I go to the smooth insert. Is this normal or am I doing something wrong. Thanks for everyones help Steve snmhall@uswest.net |

There are two was to cure the problem. 1] modify the tab on the bearing, so the inserts line up. Very easy, does not take much time. 2] Widen the notch in the bearing cap. Takes longer, but only needs to be done once, then any change of bearings is just a drop in. Charlie I am finally getting to put the motor together Quote:
