yes i did hit both ends with a mallet. when i loosen the crankcase bolts the crank turns like it should. if i tighten them up the crank is hard to turn. ive taken it apart and taken one out of two shims off the crank same exact scenario. have i maybe messed something up somewhere along my way? im kinda worried cuz this would make it 2 and 0, motors have it.</end quote></div>
Did you get the bearings on the crank correctly. It shows three bearings with two part numbers so 1 is different. It has an angle cut on the inner race, the others are square. If you got this in the wrong spot, it will be tight when you reassemble it.

the bearing kit is an "All ***** Racing Products" kit. on the label it says "Crank Shaft Brg kit polairs trailblazer 250 99-05, trailboss 250 99, xplorer 250 00-02" all the bearings have the same number of 6206. All bearings went all the way against the crankshaft balance weight. no serious problems installing bearings. checked the one that was in question and didnt find any problem with it nor with the two on the clutch side. this has me completely baffeled .

Ive never used those bearings so i don't have any experience with them. You had better measure the old ones and the new ones and see if they are different. If not, they must not have been seated all the way. Measure them and let us know what you find out ok.
Oh yeah, look at the old ones and see if the angle cut is on one of them. It's on the inside diameter of the bearing.

so after some looking around some more, i found the angle on the inner race that 94harley was talkin about. after pulling all the bearings back off the crankshaft there is not a single bearing that has that angle cut. i havent gotten ahold of "all ***** racing products" company yet to see what they are willing to do about this. seems kinda odd that the only oddball bearing that should be in the kit is not. so now that the bearings have been pulled off the are all gonna have to be replaced...but if allballs will send me the machined bearing, i now have the bearing number so i can just goto a bearing shop and get the other two for about 8 bucks...so it shouldnt turn out to bad

Just face the beveled edge of the bearing toward the other bearing. Main purpose(which I don't think really think made that much difference) was so that it was to make sure oil was able to go through the oil hole in the case without having a flat faced bearing partially blocking the hole, plus lube the bearings better. Really doesn't matter if it's located on the inside or outside of the case. Same bearing as the other one except beveled on one side.Aftermarket kits don't even have this beveled bearing.
