Apply engine oil to the outside surface of the connecting rod
bushing and the bushing fitting surface of the connecting rod.
• Fit collar B, the bushing, and collar A over the puller in the illus-
trated directions and lock this arrangement together with the nut.
• Align the oil holes in the connecting rod bushing and the con-
necting rod. Then, use a press to slowly apply a pressure of ap-
proximately 49 kN {5000 kgf} to the puller until the bushing is
forced into place.
• After press-fitting the connecting rod bushing, measure the
clearance between the piston pin and connecting rod bushing.
• If the measurement is less than the standard clearance range,
ream the bushing.

• Mount the connecting rod on the connecting rod aligner. Also
mount the connecting rod bearings, piston pin, and connecting
rod cap to create the same conditions as are expected when the
connecting rod is mounted on a crankshaft. Tighten the bolts of
the connecting rod bearing cap to a torque of 29 N
