Okay,
I have decided to order a remanufactured crankshaft that I found on RockAuto for a good price. It even comes with the proper oversized bearings for both the mains and the rods. I have a question regarding the item before I order it though.
The listing says it does not include the rear oil slinger.
Not entirely sure what that means?
Based on the photos for the listing, the rear connection for the drive shaft does look built somewhat differently, but the same bolt layout.
I will post some photos for reference, but my question is:
A: does the difference in design at the back end pose a problem, or is this common for reman cranks?
B: do I need to find a way to install a oil Slinger somehow on the remanufactured crank?
Thanks in advance!
