[QUOTE="davidd, post: 148400, member: 1177"] I do not do staking, but I think there might be some misunderstanding. I believe that the four stakes on each journal were made in order to continue assembling bearings in the cases after the races were installed and the cases were still hot. This way, the races would stay in position temporarily while continuing to build the crankcases. Much like the cylinder muff, care must be taken to keep the muff in position while the assembly cools down. I suspect that the stakes were not intended to retain the race in the case in lieu of a proper interference fit. I think there are much better procedures (mentioned above and elsewhere) for the owner/rider to use rather than resorting to the repeated use of staking. But I do think the stakes were intended to do a very small job. David [/QUOTE]
