Re: crank bearings are nightmares
well i went and did it! stuck a small shaft in the hole and put a very long "bolt on top of it. twisted like hell and it gave a good jerk. tore it down looked inside and the small shaft broke off in the bolt hole for the crank. so now my question is what the heck can i do? i drill and retap the hole... the soft metal strips again after the excessive wear and tear....no idea if i can find a new crank and just cut the old one to get to the other side and drill it out..... or does this "grease gun" trick work?? i heard so many things i don't know what will pan out for it but i have to get it done. this is the one year only and i would like to brag about having it or get it sold for the right price to get one more suited for my outing ideas......
