Posted May 25, 200816 yr so i'm going to split my cases and install the trans i bought. i bought the Yamabond 4. and i'm all set. question is: when applying the bond do i do both sides of the cases and sandwich it together or just one side...
May 25, 200816 yr Moderator use acetone to clean both surfaces. Go in extremely thin ( use a syringe and tiny bead , then finger it over the cleaned surfaces)and let both sides skin for a full minute or so, will seal great and still allow the case halves to be easily seperated later
May 25, 200816 yr Moderator do i put sealant on the crank shaft seals and output shaft seal? i did'nt, but i suppose you can just to even up what's on the cases
May 25, 200816 yr dab it with your fingers , itll tack fairly quick, yamabonds great stuff. I use a small paint brush. Im not sure of your motor but some install upsidedown easier, that way you dont have to hold crank to pin holes.
May 25, 200816 yr Author i'm doing my XJ550RH another question. the last gear on the shaft is pressed on. all pictures should it should be a c clip. how should i remove it to change out the gears/ heat it?

May 26, 200816 yr Author it ok i got it off by heating the gear, put it back on using a socket. getting the shift forks to line up was the hardest part.
