2 Stroke Dirtbike Crank Rebuild 

I’ve never seen crank truing before. It really is an art. Enjoyed the video man 🤙

awesome, i'm gonna do it myself, since over at crankworks az they completely screwed me on my crankshaft service, pressed the wrong one together and just sent it back. i would never ever do busy with them, ever.

I haven't seen anybody do that, since I did them, back in the day, when my buddy seized-up his Suzuki RM 125, at full speed.The Rod was fused to the Crank, it took a lot of pressure, in the press to get it apart, but I got it back together, less than .001, and it ran great. Now I'm looking to do my 1988 CR500 crank, that's been sitting around for years. Plus it helps when you worked in a machine shop your whole life.

That was pretty dope never seen videos on crank rebuilds

Nicely done

Awesome video. You are very talented

Learned alot nice work

Awesome video!!!

That was so satisfying

Very impressive

Yo that’s satisfying af😂

KTM makes a tool that holds the crank halves in alignment while you press them. Works really well

Really it’s that easy and I have been sitting buying new cranks I’m about to save a lot of money

Hi I’m rebuilding a yz250, I replaced the bearings along with the bearing cap/seals and the crank as well. When I went to put the casing back together, it didn’t want to fully seet down. I ended up getting it about a quarter inch away from being fully flush but it won’t go the rest of the way down. When i tried putting a few screws in the block and lightly torquing them down to see if it would help, it caused the crank to freeze up and also made no difference in the gap in the block. Any ideas?

Seriously, do you have any technical background like mechanic schooling? Your skill set and knowledge in the shop is so impressive 👍

thats impressed asf

Good setup! Did you make that truing stand? Where did you get that set of dial indicators? I’m looking to do similar for my builds. Do you ever weld or stake the pin after?

Do you offer this as a service? If so, where are you located?

Is that a steel press plate, or aluminum?

I see that you are very good at your job, have you ever seen the HOT RODS brand, do you know if it is good?

Shot out

What thickness steel plate did you use

(If parts were included) would you rebuild my 2011 yz125 crank if I sent it to you? I’m located in Oklahoma. Anyways nice video

The visuals in this video are excellent. However, I don't understand the need to add a musical soundtrack. If I wanted to listen to music, I would go find music videos that I enjoy. Other than that, the refurbishing job on the crank is spot on.

how did you balance it

Same question below, did you build your own truing stand? Can you please share what you use to build this?

How much does one cost

Hi, i have a cuestion, it is posible to fit a crankshaft from 90's or earlys 2000 on my 1987 125cc two stroke??? My cuestion is because i cant find any crankshaft for my YZ 😑

So what keeps the cranks trued after hitting with the hammer? They just stay in place?

So to true it, you just hit it with a brass hammer? You should show how you built that truing stand

3:50 😊

I need my 1995 yz125 crank rebuilt. I need the connecting rod replaced and the crank balanced. Please help. I’ll pay for shipping.

Pourquoi a la fin le comparateur n'est plus placé tout au bout du cône ? Plutôt que en face du roulement.

Where did you get that stand? I want one!

your trueing stand idea,,,, if the pins that go through the bearing bores are not slightly larger than the bore the bearings will not be concentric and cause inaccurate reading ,,,, better to use cheap off shore vee blocks

crank is bent

You do rebuild for them I’ll pay you😅
