side so the bearing shells can be pushed in easily. The bearing shells
should protrude 1-2 mm on the other side of the assembling sleeve to
make it easier to position them in the engine case.

the end gap on the bearing shells points to the marks

made when
disassembling.
– Press in the bearings from the outside to the inside through the
assembling sleeve up to the stop using the press mandrel
