LOL sure enough, the crank bearing did "feel" like it had a stiff spot in it. But upon inspection and cleaning it looks and feels fine. Thanks, TB

But if your crank needs ground, your screwed because you already ordered the kit and it will have a standard size rod in it. You will have to ship it back and order another rod. Should have checked ALL parts, then ordered the kit.
