First put the J 38834-1 short threaded end through the balance shaft bore in front of engine block. Then press the J 38834-1 into the J 26941. Insert the J 38834-2 item onto the assembled J 38834-1 piece that goes through the balance shaft bore of the engine block. Insert the J 38834 bearing set with washer and nut onto J 38834-1 before fastening it. Use the wrench to rotate the J 38834 nut clockwise and remove the balance shaft rearmost bearing from the block.

Insert the J 38834-2 into the balance shaft front bearing bore from the engine block's front with its small diameter facing out. Apply engine oil onto the new balance shaft rear bearing and set it onto the J 38834-2 while keeping it properly aligned for assembly. Use a wrench to fasten the J 38834-1 then turn the J 38834 nut until the bearing settles properly into its bore. Reinstall the balance shaft after you have taken out J 38834.

Chevrolet Balance Shaft Bearing Set stabilizes engine movement, reducing vibration to make it smoother to drive and longer. Since 1911, Chevrolet has driven driving forward with an appropriate combination of accessible price tags and engines that enjoy working. From reliable compacts to road trip-ready SUVs, Chevrolet is creating cars that are friendly but will not give up. Chevy continues to refresh powertrains, include simple technology such as hands-free highway assist, and maintain dashboards that are easy to understand. Families rely on Chevy for weekend outings, whereas commuters appreciate its economy at the gas pump. Long haulers also compliment the ride comfort that remains calm after dozens of miles of rough pavement. City drivers report Chevy steering that is light but still reacts rapidly once traffic becomes strict. The Balance Shaft Bearing Set fits between the crankcase and the counter-rotating shaft and is in between the slipping oil flowing through its clearances. Its bi-metal or tri-metal shells combat wear, resist the presence of harsh resonance, and allow engines to live longer. Retain the 0.001 to 0.0035 inch oil gap, and the Balance Shaft Bearing Set will ensure, without any trouble, that vibrations are kept low. It has been hard alloyed on its surface to prevent scarring of the journals through its high rev run. It is this small but difficult part that drivers can see in the form of calmer mirrors, tighter timing chain noise, and more stable idle.
