Loose fitting main bearing in case....

[skiboyracing]

I split the case on my Lt250 and found that the right hand main bearing fits what I consider loosely inside the casing. I see where someone tried the old trick of center punching dots into the side of the case to grip the bearing but I can push it in and out with my fingers. There is a couple thousandth or so play. I've been told to just clean it good and use some red locktight on about eight different points of the outside bearing race and put it all back together, When it cures all will be tight.. Anyone have an opinion. I don't want to spend 500 bucks on new cases but I don't like the idea of being able to install the main bearing by hand with out a press fit.

There is a sleeve kit that is available to solve that problem. I'm not sure how they are put in if any material has to be removed first then the sleeve pressed in or not. Try QRHeadquaters for your answer.
