splitting my cases

[baker]

hey guys, im gonna split my motor to install a new crank, ive never done this before so i was wondering is anything gonna fall out or should i invest in a manual? it looks like i can take the top case off and everything should just sit in the bottom case, am i right on this? any tips will be appreciated thanks

A Clymer's manual is one of the best investments you can make, as a banshee owner. The manual, and a decent set of tools is a must.

I agree!! Splitting them isnt too difficult, but for putting them back together you will def need a manual which will list the tightening sequence and torque specs for all the case bolts. Clymer is the best engine manual Ive ever read, if you follow it step by step and look at the pictures everything is spelled out very nicely. Good luck, and if you run into any problems post 'em up.

thanks guys, where would be a good place to get a manual?

Couldn't agree more on the Clymers. Just got done rebuilding my motor and the Clymers walked me thru step by step.

I got mine from the local shop, but I'm sure one of the site sponsors sells them also.

A manual will def. help. When I rebuilt mine, I just downloaded the manual off of dune review and bought a rebuild dvd off of a guy on here. The dvd really helped and the free downloaded manual helped when torque specifications were needed.

Get some zip locks bags so you can put the bolts into and label them. Like clutch side case. It will save you time and keep everything clean. This way you wont be hunting down nuts and bolts

Make sure you seal the keyway on the primary drive gear,washer/threads too,commonly overlooked but i have seen leaks in a few motors
