I have split the case, and removed the crankshaft and bearing seals. I want to replace the the crank Bearings. What is the best way to to get them out with out damaging the case? Also, when it is time to install the new crank do I need to use the Yamaha Installing pot tool? I can’t find this tool anywhere.

Heat the case up and tap on old bearings. .
A hotplate works but you’ll probably be unpopular when the oil starts smoking in the kitchen. Its best tto use Yamaha tool to pull crank back into case. you may have to take it to dealer for this. ( case can get distorted or crank damaged if you hammer it in)
