I just bought a rebuilt crank for my Viper. When I got the crank I notice that the weld was cracked on the PTO side of the crank. I sent a message to the seller about the cracked weld and he said that the crank was fine and that they used a special Loctite on the crank pin and that was the way they are doing it now. He also said the pins will move slightly when you weld them and put them out of true.
I know that Yamaha use to Loctite them and it didn’t work and that that is why they started welding them.
Does anyone have any information on this new Loctite or is the guy just blowing smoke up my butt.
Thanks
