NOTE: Because the connecting rods and connect-
ing rod caps are unique, note the I.D. marks and keep
all associated parts together for assembling pur-
poses.

then account for the PTO-side end seal, the two
thrust bearings, and three bearing halves.
NOTE: For assembling purposes, note the oil
grooves of the thrust bearings face the counter-
weights of the crankshaft. Mark the MAG-side bearing
for assembly purposes.
30. Reinstall the connecting rod caps with cap screws
into the rods; then using a soft hammer, gently tap
the piston assembly out the top side of the cylinder.
CAUTION
Pistons can be removed from the top side of the cylin-
der only.
