Yes, freeze the flywheel overnight.
Pre heat oven to Broil (600* is what is called for but I think most home ovens
only go to 550*)
Have a large cookie pan set up on a piece of wood on the counter top.
(The wood is a safty catch just in case)
Heat the ring gear for 30 minutes, Now very quickly place the flywheel on the
cokkie sheet and then drop the gear over it. Some slight tapping with a small
hammer may be needed.
Be sure the gear goes on the correct way.
The reason for the cookie sheet and plywood is because you have to do this in
under a minute so taking the parts from the kitchen to the workbench may ruin
your
timing.
At least this is how I did it.
Good luck.
