## Step 2

The 2.5” ID X-Contact Bearing will be installed from the bottom side of the Swerve X Bottom Plate. It is a tight slip fit and can be installed by hand or with an arbor press, if necessary. The bearing should sit flush with the bottom side of the plate.&#x20;

Once the bearing is fully seated, use the six #10-32 x 3/8”L bolts to retain it. The bolts should be tightened until flush with the bottom side of the Bottom Plate. The image below indicates the location of the bolts in green.
