So I'm rebuilding my early 7 bolt. I had my crank ground undersized and I just noticed that the machine shop also resurfaced my thrust journals. My crank endplay went from a comfortable .004" to close to .010" (service limit is .0071"). What would you guys do in this situation? Would there be issues if I ran it as is?
I'm thinking it might not be as bad as it seems because this endplay is due to material taken from both surfaces, instead of just one surface in the case of regular crankwalk. Not to mention that I now have perfectly smooth thrust journals.
Man, it would be nice if someone made a slightly thicker thrust bearing, so I could compensate for this...
