His suggestion is pretty much JB Weld new bolts in. Pretty much a patch job, then sell it to get out from under it. Whether i sell it or keep it, I still want it fixed correctly. I guess I am just to nice of a guy to screw someone over like that.

Good on you for not listening to that guy... just insane recommendation.

I have like four cranks sitting in storage. If you're not local might be able to ship one to you. Machine shop local to you can give the journals a polish (or I could see about having that done before I ship it out).

now that is a great offer, I suggest letting @PriusLover have the crank polished before it is shipped.

From your experience, I would feel safer that way.
