Well I spun 2 rod bearings in the burban when we got that last major snow (go figure) so since it has been 80 degrees for the past 2 days I am going to swap the crank. Any one got any suggestions???? Or helpful hints? I will try to post some pics also....but no promises

 

good luck man let us know how it goes !

 

Take it slow. Remove piece by piece. Take plenty of pictures and follow the manuals instructions.
