    Trunions upgrade

    I recently found two needle bearing on the oil drain plug. Im guessing the rocker arm trunions crap out and Im thinking of putting the rocker arm upgrade kit on but I have found no info on this. Any advice would be appriciated. Thanks!

    the kit itself is not new just the do it yourself kit is. I have comp upgraded trunions in my rockers, i sent them the a shop down in Memphis to have them pressed in. happy i did it now i never have to worry about those damned needle bearings.

    Yeah... I was wondering if I could do it that way. I didnt know if it would harm the bearings to beat them with a hammer.
