flywheel help

[T34me]

has anyone ever had a problem with a pushing the pilot bearing in a zex flywheel? It will not go in!

[Barefoot]

sure u are putting it in from the right side and that u have the right bearing.

take a socket and flip it over on top of the bearong and tap it in, If it still wont go, go to a parts store and match it up with another one. You may have the wrong bearing. Its a tight fit but should go in with a good couple wacks- be careful not to damage it...

if its the right bearing, it will be a snug fit, should be able to start it by hand and use a rubber mallet or something to tap it the rest of the way in.

if it's not fitting, it might be the wrong one.

the bearing came with clutch, the outer ring of metal completely overlaps flywheel, i went to acura and honda, neither had one i could compare it to

check all your local parts stores, till you find one. make sure you got the right clutch and pressure plate to. if the bearing is wrong, the rest might be too. is this an ebay kit ?

its exedy kit off ebay

do you have the correct flywheel for the motor?

i used a ebay clutch kit and every works just fine for me. hell its still in my car. pilot bearing to the throwout bearing.

so, went to auto zone, compared the one that came with my clutch to one that they had, it was the EXACT same bearing, not just size, it WAS the bearing that i had. I find it hard to believe that a $400 zex flywheel was machined improperly
