Question about my bearings...??? **PICS**

[Poohbair]

Are they supposed to look like this...? Well, I USED TO have a fairly decent 4 bolt main, balanced steel crank 350... Crap.

 

[rubbinz raczn]

err no!

 

[AkMudr]

Yeh those aint lookin too healthy lol. Quite a bit of scoring. If you plan on usin the crank again you'll need to get it ground no doubt.

 

[Poohbair]

Trust me, the crank and the rod don't look any better...

 

[AkMudr]

What happened? Just spun a bearing or?

 

[diesel4me]

Yipe!!

< 1 YIPE! for every main bearing < 1 EEK! for every rod bearing


Looks like you ran it with no oil pan!--thats what happenned to the last set of bearings I saw like yours--a guy ripped the oil pan off on a speed bump,and kept on driving till the crank would turn no more....



Do you plan on saving it,or is it a candidate for a coffee table???

 

[Ryan B.]

ouch man. did that bearing spin?

yep thats gonna be turning the crank and resizing the rods, new bearings..
I just got done with that on my BBC.. gave me an excuse to make it faster though.

 

[Poohbair]

Just 1 bearing F-ed up, the crank, and 1 rod. Yeah, just spun a bearing for some reason..? Who knows. I will probably have the crank turned and the rod fixed, throw a new set of bearings in the bottom and call it a day.

 

[RustBuket]

That makes me cringe just looking at it!

 

[white-rhyno]

[Poohbair]

I think a little emory cloth and one higher weight of oil should get you back on the road.....































NOT!! Yikes, that is bad.

A little JB weld and you're good as new

 

[grindkings]

Just put it back in, no big deal. Or just run without it.
