brock_fuzzy_69 Posted June 19, 2004 Report Share Posted June 19, 2004 top case or bottom ?? it will invlove disassembly most of the motor to do it just make sure that the mating surfaces of the cases are clean then put on some case bonding stuff make sure that u torque all the case studs and bolts in the right order its really not to bad of a job the stuf you can get at honda or kaw or yamaha is all the same or threebond wich is the company that makes it for them whatever is easiest for you to go get Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frocashmoney24 Posted June 20, 2004 Report Share Posted June 20, 2004 yup, your gonna have to take it all apart, but when ur in there maybe throw in some aftermarket parts! just make sure you clean off the mating surface good befoe u put yamabond back in there, dont use silicon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
broke Posted June 20, 2004 Report Share Posted June 20, 2004 It's really not that hard. Definately get a Clymers if you don't already. And have a pretty good size clean space to keep track of everything. The cranks is a no brainer to get out. The trans is a little more complex, but pretty much just as easy. I had to hit mine pretty good with a rubber mallet to get it to split. And like what was already said, make sure evrything is clean before you reassemble it. Good, luck broke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nater006 Posted June 21, 2004 Report Share Posted June 21, 2004 Best part about the bottom... you really don't have to take the top end apart. banshee370 gave me the info on this when my 2nd gear was shot and I got both gear clusters replaced w/o taking the top end off. Buy all the seals you need. Don't reuse 'em by any means. Yamabond #4 is what you want to put on the case halves before resealing them.
