6. See Figure 3-105. Place new bushing between connect-
ing rod and driver.
NOTE
The driver must be attached facing the opposite direction as it
was for removal of the bushing.
7. Clean up and size bushing to 0.0010-0.0005 in.
(0.0254-0.0127 mm) undersize using REAMER (Part
No. HD-94800-26A). Sizing bushing with less than
0.00125 in. (0.03175 mm) clearance can result in a
bushing loosening and/or seized pin in rod.
8. Hone bushing to final size using WRIST PIN BUSHING
HONE (Part No. HD-35102). Use a liberal amount of
honing oil to prevent damage to hone or bushing. Use
care to prevent foreign material from falling into the
crankcase.
