it depends on how bad the crank is scared. take it to a machine shop and see if they can micropolish it if not get a new crank. In my experience a cut crank is not as reliable as a uncut one.

what he said. Thats what I did. They weld it and build it up to fit your bearings and NO it's not the same welding as welding two metals together, if thats what you're thinking. It will be cheaper for you rather than to get OEM crank
