HO Pump install?

[DaBigHert]

I got a ho pump kit from y2grey(i assume it came from Carl). I'm going to install it this week. I this a cut and dry install w/ regular hand tools, or is a press required? The bearings are already installed in the pump. Thanks.

If you put the driveshaft in the freezer for a few hours and the pump assembly in the sun or heat it up somehow without damaging the seals you might get lucky. There is a sticky or 2 on how to do it and the correct setback for the shaft.

A few tools but nothing special other then a set of calipers.

Thanks. I saw those posts, but they were without the bearings installed. Can you explain setback to me?

Are the seals already in the pump?

[DaBigHert]

I saw one seal. Is there another one?

Should be 2 in the front. You will have to get a measurement off the back to properly set the depth. There are no stops on the shaft and it is very easy to set it to far forward. I've never done it with the bearings already in the pump.

PM WaterWoody, I think he has done it this way a few times.

Ok, maybe there are 2 in the front. There is nothing in the back. Thanks for the help, I'll try woody.
