crankshaft needed
Hi I have a 1978 ezgo. It has the robin motor with internal starter. I need the crank shaft for it. I still have the old crank all it needed was the rod. so I put a new rod on it. but now I cant get it realined properly. so if some one had one that was all done that would be great.

Re: crankshaft needed
Internal-starter ones are rare.
A good crank guy can true yours up as long as you didn't tweak the cheeks. Irondog 810-241-7101 does all the ones I don't have time for. |

Re: crankshaft needed
Take what you have to a machine shop! They'll get that thing aligned for a heck of a lot less than getting a new one.
If you have a manual take that too. |

Re: crankshaft needed
If you go to a machine shop, take the rods as well as the crank, so they can fit the rods to the crank. A machine shop that specializes in automotive work would have the specialized tooling for working on cranks and people who do this type of work every day.

Re: crankshaft needed
Most automotive machine shops are not set up to do press-together cranks.

Re: crankshaft needed
I twice went to a local NAPA that had a machine shop as part of its operations. Each time the dude there was able to do my crank work while I waited. Not sure where else you would go to get this work done.

Re: crankshaft needed
If you have access to an engine lathe it is not too hard to align the crank.
