Some have suggested filling the space behind the roller with grease, then shove a dowel in the hole, and tapping it out with hydraulic force. It is a pain. It is best to mic the pilot hole in the crank, and lathe your own. Its pretty simple. Once the shaft is through the pilot, the rollers usually stay in place. I'm curious, did you align the bellhousing with those dowels(RobMC forumite can help)? What is your driveshaft angle, and lenth? +3 +3 ? 4gearsavoy is really knowledgeable on this topic.
