Crank/rod question

[fitethesystom]

How many of you have needed to replace your connecting rod & crank when you were doing a stock or 416 (no larger)? Just curious. :D

im not exactly sure what your asking but i just replaced the crank and rod and i have been running a 11:1 stock bore piston it is a 2000 model and probably been highly modified for its whole life. my rod had some vertical play.

vertical play is not good. how many people needed to replace their rod/crank to have a good rebuild and find out how often they need replacing. How much was your rod & crank

I just had to replace my crank and rod w/ only 6 hours. The thrust washers went bad and my rod as side to side play.
Its a 04 trx 450r.

mine has side to side play but i was told that did make any difference just the vertical is bad
