Is this journal good or bad?

[javier347]

I got my crank back from the machine shop and i am noticing some mark / scratch on 2 of the journals.
I can feel it with my nail but i am not sure if this is an issue, this is my 1st rebuild and want to ensure everything goes well.
Please let me know what you guys think.

Not pretty that is for sure.

As long as there is no burrs to get into the bearings you should be ok.

Those scratches will just hold a bit of oil.

Make sure the journals measure out good.

Thanks Bogus, I called the machine shop and explained the issue.
His response was that that the crank was polished and the crank could be ok. The crank has been measured for standard bearings. If I wanted a smooth journal I would have to cut or buy a new crank.
My only concern is that my nail catches a bit onto the journal. But I am no expert. So I'll run it and hope for the best.
