Dude you did the right thing! That bearing no matter how softly you tapped it in, has had something done to it that it was not designed to cope with. Replacement for sure...... And thank you for posting this to show the peeps out there that, upon realization of a mistake, learning from it and acting by applying the correct action not only grows your psyche but shows humility too
If you're anything like me, not replacing that bearing would always be in the back of your mind. We all make mistakes like that, and never regret making the effort to correct it. Plus there's a side bonus, now you know how effective heat differential can be when installing bearings!
Wow man that worked insanely well...its amaxing hiw you can apply simple science to a mechanical problem and get such an awesome result!! Keep up the great work !! I cant wait to hear that raptor thump!! Even more excited to see what your gonna do with the banshee!?!
Great video. Me, myself would have left the 1st bearing in. Reason being I never replaced one. Lol. As long as we have TH-cam. When time comes I'll have alllll the answers.
lol i was typing to use the hot cold method and there you go doing it haha yeah it works really good most of the time sometimes you gotta tap it a little bit they slip together most of the time like they were meant to be hahaha and if your slipping a bearing over something like a truck axle or something then heat the bearing up and cool the axle.. so whatever is on the outer most part it gets the heat and whatever is on the inner most part gets the cold if that made sense haha
Nice I'm getting ready to install a crank on my raptor I will be trying this method does it matter which way thay bearing goes in I've seen some video of the numbers facing the other way thanks in advance
Deff good to do things right, just to be sure. I've never done, or left a bearing like that, nor do I condone it lol but in my opinion, I bet it would've been fine. Like u said, quality now days can be really top notch on bearings. Esp if their from Japan. Those balls are hardened to such extremes I've clamped one ball from a busted bearing with vice grips as hard as I could get the clamp to go, and then released and inspected it. And there wasn't even a scratch! My guess on integrity failure would be if it caused a fracture from hammering it like that. And u would never see the fracture even upon inspecting it. At least not while its in the race, in an engine case. Anyway, prob be fine but deff not worth the risk for a couple bucks and 2 hours of time. Glsd u swapped it!!!!
I agree man; even after recently re-visiting this video and seeing how I smashed it in there the first time; like you said, the quality of materials is so good these days, it probably would have lasted just fine but it was still the safer move.
ah cool, now i know who to talk to when we have a problem at work with a lift. lol. we do have a komatsu with a ton of electronics, it spits and sputters sometimes when in gear but as soon as you put it in neutral it revs to the moon.. we have had a few people work on it but it starts doing it again very soon. it's around a 5k lb 3 stage lift, on propane.. if that helps.
Bro I was so going to tell you the same thing but then I thought what the hell is anyone going to listen to me I'm Just a Nobody then boom you're making a video on it lol
Nice trick. Although that's about as bad as powder coating in the oven. The next time your wife goes to make a Cake its going to taste like 10w30. Then shes gonna kick your ass. Hahaha. (Hope Not) Maybe she will never know..
Everything is the way it is for a reason; the factory exhaust is the way it is for a reason, but almost everyone modifies that. Air filters, tire pressure etc get tweaked in an effort to improve in some way. Just because the service manual says it, does not mean its the only or even the best way. That's why autos have recalls; sometimes the way things were made at the factory is not the best way. People modify things from the factory in an effort to improve over stock. In my experience and opinion, 7.2 pounds is a little too light for the cases. But this is just my opinion.

I’m glad that you did it the right way
This is exactly the method that I use for my RC buggy engines it works perfectly every time same process different engine
That bearing went right in like a knife through butter, Nice video
It's worth it,in joy the video.
Wow that's nuts how easily that dropped in. Good to know when the time comes for me to do that
Glad to see my suggestion helped out, you even got a free degreasing on your case by baking it !!!
Another great video. Thanks for making it correct.
Great video Michael as always yeah it was something how that bearing went into place that was definitely neat.....
Thanks Brook! I couldn't believe it!

I’m currently replacing my crankshaft and main bearings on my yfz450. This really helped me thanks a lot.
Keep up the good work it was cool watching you build the banshee and i really wanna see how this raptor comes together
Great video. Me, myself would have left the 1st bearing in. Reason being I never replaced one. Lol. As long as we have TH-cam. When time comes I'll have alllll the answers.
I had the feeling it would go easy but not THAT easy!
Been doing that way for years 👍🏾
I love your videos !! I'm wanting to restore a raptor sometime and your videos are very informational and I'm looking forward to your future videos!!

3 points on that bearing!! good video as always

Dropped right in there! Nice!
Love your videos man keep it up!
Oh yeah by the way your videos are cool bro keep them coming love your content all the way from over the pond

Perfect! Really nice video
Holy shit!!! Brother your reaction was priceless hahaha
😂 thanks for watching man; shit was unbelievable
Thanks for the idea my crank shaft went is like your bearing went in
Heating the entire thing will help to eliminate possible cracking of the crankcase from localized heat.
Nice one 😄
Holy shit that was awesome!
Nice job for fixing what you did wrong
ah cool, now i know who to talk to when we have a problem at work with a lift. lol. we do have a komatsu with a ton of electronics, it spits and sputters sometimes when in gear but as soon as you put it in neutral it revs to the moon.. we have had a few people work on it but it starts doing it again very soon. it's around a 5k lb 3 stage lift, on propane.. if that helps.
Love your videos brother
Cold bearings hot cases!
i laughed my ass off when i saw your reaction to the bearing dropping in
I did too
Big up from franch paris 🗼🗼🗼
Awesome Mike 《☆》Nice when they fall in like that ☻
You can also use the old bearing to tap in the new one. Great vid, man!
Mike Johnson the old bearings inner race would hit the new ones inner race. which is why he cut out that inner part on the tool he made
did you not watch the video? it's no need to "tap it in" (Happy Gilmore) lmao
Yes, I commented before I watched. Shrug
wonder how they install them at the factory.
Lmfao when the bearing fell in and you said holy shit!!!
You deserve an arbor press
What did your wife think when you put those engine cases in the Oven? Lol next time she bakes something it's probably gonna taste like engine oil
John hahahahaha dude I'm dying 😂😂😂😂😂
Lol i agree must of smelled bad no? Lol
we all do dumb shit from time to time, at least you owned up to it. i dont think it was a waste of time at all.
Bro I was so going to tell you the same thing but then I thought what the hell is anyone going to listen to me I'm Just a Nobody then boom you're making a video on it lol
Nice video but I'm suprised you didnt know the oven freezer trick. That super old school so I guess im giving up my age.
Nice trick. Although that's about as bad as powder coating in the oven. The next time your wife goes to make a Cake its going to taste like 10w30. Then shes gonna kick your ass. Hahaha. (Hope Not)
Maybe she will never know..
I can't believe you didn't know that
Why dont you torque bolts down to spec? Theyre set like that for a reason. Why do you round it up?

Michael Sabo i suppose youre right. Never thought about that
What fatty pipe do you recommend for my kx 250 01 ???? Help
_.southern_cali_rc_ fmf
_.southern_cali_rc_ fmf
pretty sure FMF is the only one making fatty pipes ;)
Damn I wish I could have told you that
Also German torque specs good and tight 😅
Next video when?
I always put my bearings in dry ice when installing them...everyone I’ve ever done that way has fallen right in with no tapping or pressing...
Just finished the video...they fall in just like how the oven trick did lol
Who saw the cbr
the mic sound good half the time the other time it sounds terrible
Using an impact driver to screw in those bolts makes me cringe.
1st
Shoulda put it in the microwave
Waist of time and money. Main bearing is fine buddy.
pound sand.
