question about crank cases...

[David_James]

the left side case on my ltz is cracked....bad. is ok to get another used case (just the leftside) and use it with my right side case??? someone told me it wasnt good on the bottom end. i dont know if its true or if he just said that so i would buy both sides. i would think if i changed all the bearings in both side it would be ok, right???

You will be fine if you change the bearings or not.

thats what i thought. i figured he was either b.s.in' me or he thinks he knows more than he really does. i might have to buy a full crank case anyway b/c i cant find just the left side. im gonna keep looking before i do that tho. i can get a new complete case for $369 but i would rather spend less...

Check out Ronnies.com for the OEM case you need. Im sure you can order just one side.

i forgot all about ronnies. thanks for the reminder. i check it out and see.

[David_James]

Check out www.z400central.com you might be able to get a used one on there.

Z400's don't have a center case gasket and are machined together like the YFZ's and LTR's. They have to be bought in pairs.

yeah i talked to a few mechanics and they told me i need a set, just one side wont cut it. i found a complete case, new for $370 www.leesin.com . thats not a bad price... almost half compared to everywhere else.
