1989 50HP Evinrude. Is there anything I need to know before pressing the bearings into my lower unit that I am completely rebuilding? I have removed EVERYTHING and am now in the process of reassembling. I want to install the two roller bearings in the root of the prop shaft housing, and then one more in the drive shaft housing. I am hesitant as im not sure if the bearings are to be pressed completly or is there a tool that only allows them to seat were they should be?

Thanks
