Dude, I don't care about caps or your typing ability so here goes. The Pilot Bearing goes into the fly wheel which is bolted onto the crank. Find a socket the will easily fit into the hole for the pilot bearing and only contact the pilot bearing on the outer race. Then gently pound it in. I prefer to do that with the fly wheel off but that will make you have to split the tractor, so just be gentle while pounding it in.

In my tractor the pilot bearing goes in the end of the crank and the flywheel bolts to the crank.

Okay, first off lose the all caps. Nobody likes a shouter. Second off, at least make some effort to communicate effectively. I'm not asking for perfect King's English, but a little effort would go a long way. Nobody has responded because we don't understand what you're trying to ask.

When I replace pilot bearings, I use a large socket that matches the outer edge of the bearing, and gently tap it in with a hammer, being careful to drive it straight. It's very easy to do.

Nat 2�s approach has worked well for me.

I also like to insert an extension into the socket. The longer the better (up to about 8 to 10 inches). This makes any misalignment easier to spot and helps me drive the bearing straighter.
