??? k5 crank???

(1/2) > >>

Fowler Racing396:
is there any difference in the 88 89 k5 cranks compared to the newer models 90 and up?  thanks

DoldGuy:
Fowler,
The 89 has the same updated P/N as the 90 and on. Obviously the 88 is in discontinued status so?

RoostDaddy:
cant remember 100%, but a buddy had an '88 and his crank did look different.  I'll try to dig up something if nobody responds.

Fowler Racing396:
had one of my buddies tell me that he thinks they will match up in the cases with the bearins, seals and flywheel. . .but it could be a weight difference but wont sure. .

RoostDaddy:
I would think it would match as I believe the bearings are the same.   The older flywheel alone is a big weight savings.  Something tells me that the crank appeared different and looked to have been lighter.(never weighed it, may have just been an optical-illusion)
