Hey Studs,
Bought this MS 270 on the cheap. Previous owner said he over torqued and sheared the crankshaft on the pull assembly side.
Said it could possibly be tapped out and metal piece could be welded or just replace the whole crankshaft.
As usual I'm out of my skill set/experience on this, hence this thread and cry 4 help!
I do have a best bud who runs a Stihl Shop...and gives me excellent deals.
Just wondering if I could do this myself, besides I see good OEM parts pretty 20170125_154901.jpg cheap for it.
What do you all think?20170118_205118.jpg 20170125_154826.jpg

You need a new crank. Splitting cases is only hard the first time
