im installing a used motor that i bought with 90,000 miles on it and when i pulled the oil pan i noticed that the crank bearings are worn out. nothing is damaged, I heard the motor running before i bought it.
i performed a compression and leak down test at my local shop he told me that other than the bearings the block is in great shape.
i dont have enough cash for the shop to change the bearings and install the motor.
my question changing the bearings looks pretty straight foward. unbolt the crank and rods and replace the bearing and torque down the bolts.
is there more to it than that?? do i need any special tools?
and what is a good bearing to use?? ENGINE IS BONE STOCK.
please let em know. thanks guys!!
