1st Sled Purchase Nightmare Gets Worse!!!! Please Read!!!!

the bearing closer to the counter balance seems to have a little play.... thats the one making a bad whirring noise when it spins....

can you check them by feel or is there another special tool???
 
the bottom case is completely wasted!!!! marred and pitted like crazy!!!

I think the only good part of the lower end might end up being the crank......

the rods have no sign of impact...... I really really think this guy tore the motor down, saw all the signs of a complete piece by piece rebuild on the sled he had just baught and decided to make up a story just to off it.... piston slapped it and hope it holds long enough the buyer lost all his info!!!
 
if he was trying to make it last long enough why would he use pistons that were too small???? I dont think they would be any cheaper......

what takes a 74.2mm piston????

Thstorms, I also have a clutch puller that should work along with a puller for the mag. If you want to get them off before you go and see Pete. I also live in Portage, MI near the Austin Lake Public Access.
