Does anyone know if I cant fabricate a hand crank for my truck from another chevy hand crank?
I've noticed that different years are different lengths and different bends.
I can't seem to locate one for my truck.
Thanks in advance,

If I'm googling or Ebaying.
I've been putting in "hand Crank" for the subject.
Should I be using another search term?

Ebay in the most part has dried up somewhat and getting kinda pricey. My opinion, Mike | | | | | Joined: Jan 2000 Posts: 2,074 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jan 2000 Posts: 2,074 | Yes you can fabricate one, determine what size bar stock you need to fit inside the balancer and go from there. Re. length, it just has to long enough to clear the bumper. There is a recent post here for a 41-46 truck crank, check that out to get a basic idea. I made one from all thread rod to use in the shop for adjusting lifters but you probably want an original looking crank. Best of luck | | |
