FOUND IT Solo 665, 675 or 681 crankshaft

[Powerstroke Cowboy]

Howdy yall.

As the title says, I am looking for a good crankshaft from a Solo 665, 675 or a 681.

Feel free to post what you have or just message me directly.

Also, if you have a lead on one that would be great!

Thanks for your time and help.

David.

You can buy a new one for about $120ish shipped. There is a seller on Ebay in Germany. He still has a decent selection of NOS Solo parts at pretty reasonable prices. I bought a crank from him several years ago and haven't had any issues with it. I also bought a few wear parts when the Euro dropped to even money with the dollar. IIRC shipping was less than two weeks.

Thank you. Yes,I have been watching that crank for a couple weeks now.

I was hoping to find something a little more local. But, if nothing turns up I will have to go that route. Your right, he does have decent selection of stuff.

I picked up one from a member. Was hoping for three. I might have to just buy some new old stock that's in Germany.

Are you putting them in a solo or dolmar?

 

[Powerstroke Cowboy]

Dolmar. Well to be exact, Makita.

Bump for November.

665, 675 and 681 all have a 38.2mm stroke?

 

[Shane¹]

They all should be 38mm stroke

 

[Funky sawman]

I thought the 681 had a different stroke

As far as I know the 665, 675 and 681 all have the same stroke/platform as each other. Just like the 6400, 7300 and 7900 dolkitas.

I might be thinking that the 681 crank is 1mm longer stroke than 7900

That would be correct, 37mm vs 38mm.

Yes, it's true that the solo has a different crankshaft stroke - I've even heard of 2mm

I wish it were 2mm longer.

That's what she said
