Hey guys, I've got a question, my opinion bearing went out of my gear case I removed it by pulling it out, but my question is do I install it through the bottom or do I press it in through the top of the housing down towards them gear case? Is there anything else that I need to know to complete the job

The Mexican fellow ----The ----" manual "----- calls for a special tool to drive the bearing in from the top to the correct depth.----Hopefully you measured the position before you pulled it out.

Hopefully you drove it it with letters on bearing facing towards the water pump.
