I needed to replace my crank, one of the journals was shot with a groove for the oil way. very poor.
I bought a crank off ebay and has no wear or none that I can see even the typical banding where the oil way goes is just noticeable. I have the bearings from the crank and they are only showing very slight wear so all in all I was lucky and its all tip top. the bearings are all jumbled up and I don't have the codes for the cases the crank came from.
My Crank case codes are BBBAA (the cases I am going to use)
Crank numbers are 11111
manual states Green for the BBB
and Yellow for the AA
I cant get any yellow shells
Question, does anyone know where I can get some yellow shells from
Question, will it matter if I put green in throughout, I assume 2 of the bearings will be tight but will it matter.
I was very reliably informed that it shouldn't matter if I run it in carefully but logic suggests that I am doing something fundamentally wrong, but I am running out of options.
I have spoken to crank grinders to remove 0.01mm off the two journals but they don't want to touch it.
It seems insane to try to ream out the cases so I have BBBBB across the whole series of bearings
Any advice
