Stuck on Crankshaft removal
Have all the pistons out but am stuck on the removal of the crankshaft. The center main bearing cap will not budge. Both bolts are out and from what I can tell, the thrust bearings are what is keeping it in possibly?
How do I go about removing the thrust bearings and getting the last main cap out to remove the crank?
Im puzzled and cant find any info after lots of scouring online.
Thanks!

This worked for all the other caps but this center one will not seem to budge. Guess I’m being cautious with the force tho. It is just so tight to the crank because of those thrust washers. Do the trust washers need to come out first? Or do they come out once the cap is off?
