It seems like an oxymoron, but when I pulled the flywheel on that 22-36, I thought maybe anti-sieze would be a good idea for assembly [not that I suspect it will ever be off again, but Murphys law dictates I screw up somewhere and have to, if I assume as much].
When I got it off, it almost looks like the factory or last person in there had the same idea. A rather silvery grease residue sure looks like anti-seize to me.
The bearings had a yellowish grease; on those I went with motor oil for assembly. Like I'm planning for the flywheel, I took them about to about 150F or so (just to the point I coudn't handle them bare hands] for assembly; did the same with the rear bearing carrier to insert the bearing. The aspect ratio on that rear bearing isn't too friendy for staying straight while you push it it on, but a little help from a multi-purpose-impact-pursuation tool [and a purple finger nail ]: firm against the end.
Funny thing is: I think I posted this as a tangent in another thread I started, and, in keeping with my habit of forgetting the answers to my own tangents, now have to ask again! :? :lol:
