Hi, I have an RB26 on a stand and I need to change my crankshaft bearings, I never did this before and I would like to know how to put out my crankshaft ! Whats firts step and all steps Please ....
No offence, if you can't figure that out (all bolts are visible from start to finish), you should probably be hiring that out. If you have to change bearings, you probably need some polishing...

Download the PDF file of the service manual. It will guide you through all the steps to properly remove the crank with correct un tightening and tightening sequences, torque specs, clearances etc. make sure you check your crank for any visible scoring or wear marks at the very least. And also plastiguage when assembling

I Don't like to tell people they can't do things, but this sounds like a recipe for disaster. Instead of searching for a step by step guide on how to assemble and tolerance an engine properly I suggest you do some backround reading first. You don't get second chances if you mess up those bearing clearances.
You will also want to find out WHY the bearings need to be changed. Find the root cause of the failure or you will be repeating the repair.
^ how will he learn from his mistakes if he doesn't make any!? Lol

micropolish crank is a must, bearing clearances should be checked within FSM specs by using plastigauges, or if you are baller status, use professional grade micrometers
if all grounds are covered, doesn't leave much room for mistakes
