CHARGER9AUTO 3 #1 Posted February 10, 2008 I did not need to have the Crank redone my Dad took some emery paper and shined it up so it's smooth . Ben Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rollerman 290 #2 Posted February 10, 2008 Thats good to hear Ben. Sometimes the crank journal tends to get oval or egg shaped after a lot of hours. Always a good idea to check it & see if it's still in spec. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve, I have to order the parts for my 953's 10 HP motor online sometimes you need to have the Crank redone or polish by hand it's not like I work the tractor hard. I either pull a two wheel dump cart around the yard . Ben :thumbs: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
catman81056 3 #4 Posted February 11, 2008 I think what Stephen is saying is since you're taking the time to do it right it wouldn't hurt to have the crank "miked" at a machine shop. Sure would be a shane to ruin all the new parts because the crank was out of round and spit the bearing out. Just my .02 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
