FITTING PINION BEARINGS
See Figure 3-137. A pressed-in bushing in the right crank-
case half is the outer race (14). The inner race (10) is pressed
onto the pinion shaft.
11. See Figure 3-141. To remove pinion shaft inner race, use
WEDGE ATTACHMENT for CLAW PULLER (Part No.
HD-95637-46A) with BEARING RACE REMOVER/
INSTALLER (Part No. HD-34902B) and END CAP (Part
No. HD-34902-7). Apply heat to race to aid removal.
NOTE
Pinion bearing selection at the factory, during engine build, or
replacement of crankcase set or flywheel assembly is based
on the largest measured outside diameter (OD) of the inner
race and the smallest measured inside diameter (ID) of the
outer race (crankcase bushing). A running clearance of
0.0002-0.0008 in. (0.0051-0.0203 mm) is established during
crankcase set or flywheel assembly replacement and engine
rebuild.
12. See Figure 3-142. Installed inner races are identified at
the factory as shown. See Table 3-28.
