          | I was going back  on this pulling forum and I found at thread about crank shafts. Does anyone run a Kieth Merfeld crank? I have a crank of his in my tractor and it is the nicest crank I have seen done it is 6 inch. I was watching some pulling from the 2015 champ pull. I was wondering  what size crank jr. Crum has and others have in there allis's and cubes, and who did some of the other cranks in tractors that r pulling. Panky sure gets his ass kicked on this forum sounds like he try's to know what he is talking about. I am building a wide front for mine right now, I want to go to waterloo in February, never pulled at a national pull hopefully I won't get my ass kicked. I don't  think my 400 cubes is enough. Lol. |
