When someone asks a question like above I assume that they do not understand the details that could cause damage to new bearings. I could care less about what others do, its there money but I do not want someone that asks a question like above to wreck a set of new bearings thinking they should install a crankshaft dry. That is what I get from above though. People that say that oil will desolve the plastigage when checking has never done it. I have never soaked it in oil for a length of time to check that but laying a strip on an (oily) surface (not oil bath) will not desolve it in the time you make the check. I have bought several tractors from people that did not know the details. They tried to rebuild them from advise from different YT boards, They gave up on them and put them up for sale when they couldn't get them running. After making my point if the fellow wants to take the others advise and put a crankshaft in dry (so be it) He now has two sides to choose from.
