Here I am comparing the old shaft & bearings to the new one.


********IMPORTANT**********


The bearings MUST be pressed on from the opposite side of the shaft, the engine side on this pump, from the water & oil seals. If you press the bearings on over the shaft from the impeller end you WILL mar the surface which will in turn ruin the seal and you'll have water and oil leaks.


DO NOT over press your bearings either. The oil seal is very close to the bearings if you press the bearings beyond where they need to be you will have just ruined your shaft. Do not skip the depth marking and measurement steps.
