Replacing Thrust Bearings

[antiheroX]

I've been looking for a walkthrough for replacing Thrust Bearings, but I still havent found it yet. Anybody know of one online? Or can someone give me the gist of what I'm doing.
Yes I've searched here DSMTalk, and Google.
Preferably with pictures

Its a DECENT amount of work. You may be better off picking up a DEALER service manual.
I'd say it would be easiest to pull the motor, you will have to take the crank out. Which is FULL disassembly of the motor. The head will have to come off, pistons come out, oil pump, transmission, oil pan...will all have to come off. You could also just pick up a manual from pep-boys or somthing and use the forum for further assistance.


P.S. you should also replace all rod bearings, piston rings, water pump, all timing components as well since everything will be apart. Get it all in one shot.
