Connecting rod bushing
[Removal]
Apply the Connecting Rod Bushing Puller to the connecting rod bushing 3. Using a press, apply pressure of approximately 49 kN (5,000 kgf) [11,015 lbf] such that the bushing is pressed out of the connecting rod 4.

[Installation]
• Align oil hole A in the connecting rod bushing 3 with oil hole B in the connecting rod 4.
• Apply the Connecting Rod Bushing Puller to the connecting rod bushing 3. Using a press, apply pressure of approximately 49 kN (5,000 kgf) [11,015 lbf] such that the bushing is pressed into the connecting rod 4 from the chamfered side C.
NOTE
After installing the connecting rod bushing 3, insert the piston pin 2 and check that it turns smoothly and without play.
