We frequently have the debates on the safe usage of a N/A crank in place of one with the rolled fillets. But is the rod journal where the crank breakage happens?
The crank from my old T-Type broke in the thickest part of the arm just in front of the third main bearing. The break was in the rough cast area of the crank and did not touch a journal, rod or main.
So in what location on the crank did your crank break? You guys in the DOTC Club could give us some good information here.
If the cranks are not breaking on the rod journals, then the whole debate on if it is safe to use a N/A crank is just all of us having a good time typing.
