    Glad to here you got to the car home. That will go down in history as the longest ride you ever took. Had to have a pretty high pucker factor, one to talk about for sure.

    glad you made it home safe too, Smart to go for new if same or cheaper for repair. Bummer news though!

    Could be that the crank shearing off would be a result of the harmonic balancer was loose & wobbley creating one heck of a viberation. Maybe not though, maybe the balancer issues started from a cracked/broken crank?

    Whatever it was, it is now an expensive repair.
