Hi,
I bought a 88 toyota a year ago. It had overheating problems, so i took it to a shop and they had the heads shaved and put her all back together for me. That fixed the overheating problem. The mechanic that fixed my truck told me that i needed new bearings. After procrastinating for 10 months, i dove in to the project with a friend that knows more than I do. Well, after we dropped the transmission and pulled out the oil pan. I bought standard bearings and got the back 3 in #'s 3,4, and 5. We just unscrewed the bolts and took of the bottom part of the bearing. Slid the top bearing off, put some oil on the new top bearings and slid them in. But on #1 and #2 the space to put the bearing in is too tight.

Does anyone have any bright ideas?
