conrods loose?
i have just put my new H-beam conrods and new shells on my crank and i have noticed they are loose, if i hold the end where the piston goes on and move it up and down they are all slightly wobbley, is that how they are ment to be, cheers phil.

yes, all torqued up, they have had a little more if anything, could the crank have been ground off a little before i got it, that would make them loose.

i got them off a bloke called howard on here but if the crank has been ground he wouldnt have known, ill take the crank in to get it gaged up an get the right sized bearings, it has to be the crank being ground and i cant tell, cheers phil.

it may be worth getting another crank then, if this has been reground and they dont like having it done, that would explain why the bearings were slightly worn on the crank when i stripped it, ill get a price on a crank, got any ideas.
