Un-torquing sequence.







Rear main seal and cover was a PITA to get off.

Bearings actually looked great on nearly all the connectors. Few had some wear, but none look as though they were burnt, scraped, or scared. The thrust bearings showed some wear, so I will have to check the forward-backward play with a dial gauge. Crank Looked great for 130k along with the cyclinder bores. I think a lil honing and a smooth deck will do the job.

I agree, I was expected alot more play in the crankshaft and more wear on the bearings. I was more than happy when I saw the bearings.
