The manual says to put the larger internal diameter goes toward the thrust collor, how do you tell which one that is, looks the same to me?

Install them dry first the looser one will be apparent, then lay it aside in order, grease em and install.

Grease the mainshaft or oil it where the swashplate slides and the mixer too, as well as the tail shaft slider also. Thats about it.

tail bearings

I have to disagree with heliman41. The Raptor does not have thrust bearings in the tail. They are std. radial bearings. The only thrust bearings are in the main blade grips.

All bearings should be greased. Even the "sealed" bearings. There are aftermarket kits that compress grease into these type of bearings "The Greaser" is one I know if and it will pump grease into all your bearings.

I grease my spindle shaft, flap damper bushings inside and out and thrust bearings on my Raptor 30/46.
