How do you get a crank shaft gear fully seated on the shaft?

There are a few different ways to get a crank shaft gear fully seated on the shaft. One way is to use a hydraulic press. This is the most common method and it is very effective. Another way is to use a hammer and a drift punch. This method is not as effective as using a hydraulic press, but it can be used if a hydraulic press is not available. Finally, a third way to get a crank shaft gear fully seated on the shaft is to use a heat gun. This method is not as effective as the other two methods, but it can be used if a hydraulic press or a hammer and drift punch are not available.

To use a hydraulic press, first place the crank shaft gear on the shaft. Then, place the hydraulic press on top of the crank shaft gear and apply pressure. The pressure will force the crank shaft gear to fully seat on the shaft.

To use a hammer and drift punch, first place the crank shaft gear on the shaft. Then, use the hammer to hit the drift punch. The drift punch will force the crank shaft gear to fully seat on the shaft.

To use a heat gun, first place the crank shaft gear on the shaft. Then, use the heat gun to heat the crank shaft gear. The heat will cause the crank shaft gear to expand and this will allow it to fully seat on the shaft.
