Oh No!

Went to put on my new 10% overdrive balancer to day and noticed a lot of movement of my crank forward and backward. Like a 1/8th of a inch.
What happened to the thrust bearing? This motor has about 5000 miles on it. I'm going to try and drop the cradle and pull the pan.

Eeek! That is no bueno!!

Let us know what you find.

[Mike M]

Cradle no drop!

Unbolting motor mounts, hopefully I can get the pan off.

[Mike M]

What thrust bearing?

At least you found this now.
