what is the easiest way to tell if the rear engine bearing is bad?
Ok, even a new bearing (tko's anyway), have a very small amount of back and forth play. I know some of the engine bearings i have changed not only have more back and forth play but side to side play as well.
So, i have some ceramic bearings with a couple gallons on them, but just want to know if there was a easy way to tell they are fine. Just to make sure.
thank you for anybody who answers

pull the crank, stick your finger in the back of the case, press against the bearing and spin, if its gritty it's done.

i am putting a new con rod on a new vspec P/S. I am about to smash the darn thing with a hammer. I have never had this much trouble putting a con rod on before. but i have only done ninjas, is the vspec different or something? I have the tabed ninja clips. Any secrets? I usually can get it in with my finger nail but no matter how hard i try i can't get it.
Some one help before i start using sharp metal objects to pry it in there.
Why is this so hard?
And why the $#%^ can't you buy a P/S with a con rod on it? I already have a couple extremely small scratches from my finger nail and or clip. This sucks
SOmeone please help me.

If the rod won't go onto the crank pin easily chances are your rear bearing is not seated properly.
