Rebuild Part 2

eulark · December 12th, 2013, 05:17 PM

Hey All,

So over the course of the past year, I rebuilt my motor with tons of help from the community. In particular @n4mwd has been really helpful, so I want to thank him for all that.

Now I have tons of spare parts left over. And I'm thinking I want to go ahead and assemble a motor for a roller should I ever find one, or to at least have a spare out back.

My questions.

1. The cranks shaft I have is toast along with the rods and bearings. So, what are my options with going used and looking for these? Find a crank with the rods still attached and no play whatsoever? If I remember, new rods and bearings are not cheap.

2. Pistons matched to the cylinders. Would new rings be prudent? I have more than enough laying around that all look good. Also whats the procedure for mixing pistons from one motor with the cylinder from another?

Thanks!

Any leads on one?

I have literally everything necessary haha minus a good cranks and rods. And a spare clutch basket and interior cover thing (Not the outside one).
