Question Guys with Keyed Hubs...

How hard was it to line the keyway up on the crank? Ill be putting mine on tomorrow and I really dont wanna pull it back off multiple times
There a good way to do this?

It was kind of a pain, actually. I had to shave the key down a micron at a time, until I could get it in the crank. Don't want it too loose of course, but then if it doesn't go it, you gotta shave it down. That done, coat the inside of the hub with anti-seize and try to pull it on without mashing the key out of the way. I don't have any tricks for that part.

You did all this with the timing cover on?

When I installed my keyed hub I had no problems installed it onto the key.
