Update on the knocking


Recommended Posts

I'm not too lazy to take it apart, I actually really enjoy working on these types of things, but the trees around my house just aren't producing the money like they use to. If I blow it up it's on no one but me and if it's last then I'll have a 27 year crank that has lasted 27 years with no inference.

 

And Yeah I know it could be bearings. I'm trying to price things out as we speak to see what I can do. I'm not totally against splitting the cases but I need to see what money will allow.

1. It's still very possible that the knocking sound IS the crank

2. Fresh top end will put more pressure on the crank

3. 27 year old crank seals? Air leak and meltdown?

4. We've see PLENTY of new guys in your position that destroyed their new top end because they refused to do it right the 1st time

I should replace the main bearings anyway right? While I have it apart.
