Title: crank regrind
Post by: yosemite on June 18, 2011, 01:20:04 PM

Hi
I will soon be needing to have a preunit 6t  triumph crank reground  :'(
unfortunately the engineeerinng workshop  Iwould have normally used  is now closed  Can anyone recomend a good reliable workshop preferably in or near to the scottish borders (newcastle or edingburgh are about the limits)
by the way the crank is a one piece on 30 thou undersize ,good condition,  but one journal is three thou smaller than the other which I need to have it ground
Thanks
Yosemite

If you were in the West Midlands I would thoroughly recommend HALESOWEN ENGINES .... on t'internet and  very knowledgeable about everything old and oily
