Use a proper crank puller tool to draw the crankshaft into the main bearings evenly. Forcing it with a hammer can cause the crank webs to shift, knocking it out of true and causing premature vibration and bearing failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Pairings:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n  o    \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\u003e\n  o    \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/motohousemx.com\/collections\/suzuki-rm85-performance-upgrades-engine-mods-accessories-moto-house-mx\"\u003eSuzuki 2-Stroke Performance Parts\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n  o    \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/motohousemx.com\/collections\/mx-off-road-motorcycle-tools\"\u003eEssential Engine \u0026amp; Chassis Tools\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eAt Moto-House MX, we carry the best brands in motocross and off-road performance.
