I was putting new main bearings in my Continental Z134 gas engine (in a Ferguson TO35)and got a little perplexed at the instructions, via the tech manual. The rear main bearing cap is also attached to the rear main seal plate, via two 1/4" bolts. Manual says to remove those two bolts first, which is obvious. But how? I'm wondering what was supposed to happen, as opposed to what I had to do.

All worked fine, but I'm wondering if something was supposed to be different then what I found in there?

I’m par
