Budget stroker crank issues

Post by Halo1mike »

Long story short I bought a used supposedly running 4.2 to pull the crank and rods for a super budget stroker, opened it up, five good cylinders and one with the crank worn down almost 1/32 of an inch. :brickwall: I'm not looking to spend thousands on this but do I have a choice at this point? I was planning on a cheap simple 4.5 so stock pistons, 4.2 rods, etc. Besides the crank/rods the only thing I was really considering changing was switching the cam to the es1122r if a can scrounge together the parts to switch from the thrust plate to the pressure pin. It is going in an 02 wrangler.

You'd better contact Russ in that case. He'll sort you out for parts and he can even build the stroker for you if you like.
