[QUOTE="RedVenom48, post: 15953790, member: 166576"] Be advised, if you are doing the install yourself, be prepared for a fight with the pilot bearing. All known pullers in my shop were tried and none would grip or even fit to get the bearing AND its included housing out. Actually, bearing itself pulled out. The metal housing its pressed into which is then hammer fit into the crankshaft is a complete MFer to get out. We resorted to filling the void with chassis grease and using a Matco 1/2" impact extension as essentially a "piston". "Hydraulic pressure" applied to the grease by hammering the extension into the void popped the housing out. Took several tries but it eventually worked. I was really upset at Ford that day. BUT the Ford Racing HD pilot bearing really is a beefy upgrade. [/QUOTE]
