i spun a rod bearing
 
So i spun a rod bearing and i was wondering what the process of fixing this is. i think im going to throw some oversized rods in. do i have to take the crankshaft to a machineshop and have them check for ware and whatever. buy some new berrings and be on my way or what :-\

you can just replace the bearings/seals and throw that bitch back together.. but I would always suggest having a machine shop check your ---- out.. worth the money, I have finally found a kick ass machine shop in arkansas, I will bring as much business I can to them - too bad the hardcore engine ---- has been slow for me for a little while.

I hope you like to waist your time :-\ theirs no way you can just throw new bearings back in a think it will work, when bearing's spin they damage the surface on the crank and rods. Just buy a new crank and get your rods re-sized.
