If you need to find another one, all 76 thru 78 Liquifire cranks(both 340 and 440) are interchangeable.

IF yours JUST needs main bearings & seals then it would be probably cheaper to fix yours then you know what you have.. IF you purchase a used crank there is a chance that it still might need rebuilding..

Re: crankshaft for kioritz
Bearings, seals, and labor should run less than $300. The needle bearings in the lower rods are unavailable, so they need to be good.

Re: crankshaft for kioritz
Where is the rust? If it's rusty inside the case, the simple answer is that the crank is junk.
