Always use a proper crankshaft installation tool to pull the crank into the main bearings. Taking the time to do this correctly ensures your new assembly lasts significantly longer and prevents premature main bearing failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Pairings:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eo \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/motohousemx.com\/collections\/kawasaki-kx65-performance-parts-and-accessories-moto-house-mx\"\u003eKawasaki KX65 Performance Parts \u0026amp; Upgrades\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eo \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/motohousemx.com\/collections\/suzuki-rm85-performance-upgrades-engine-mods-accessories-moto-house-mx\"\u003eSuzuki Performance Parts\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eo \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/motohousemx.com\/collections\/premium-motorcycle-chemicals-brake-fluid-bike-wash-coolant-chain-lubes\"\u003eEngine Assembly Lubricants \u0026amp; Chemicals\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt Moto-House MX, we carry the best brands in motocross and off-road performance.
