Crankshaft rebuilders Inc
So I bought a crankshaft from them not to long ago. I put around 5k miles on it. The other day on my way to work I hear a loud grind, then a knocking noise. So I turned the car off and thought, Wtf did it just ruined another bearing... So we pulled the motor and took off the oil pan. I was expecting a beat up rod bearing but instead I found out my crankshaft is cracked in half... I'll never buy a crankshaft from them...
Just letting you guys know what could happen if you buy a cut crank. Just to save a few dollars.
This was my mistake, and now I have to take the bus to work, so I could save up for another setup..
Sorry if it's a little hard to read since my English is not that good.
EDIT: Upon inspecting the motor. It also spun a main bearing which ruined both the block and the girdle... Atleast I got a new flower pot.
