A friend who lives on the Isle of Man needs a crank rebuilding.

Anyone got any ideas who can do a good job please?

BDG, you might suggest to your friend that a plain bearing mille crank will fit as well with a bit of work. (and a new oil pump, thanks phil)

Mick Walker does very little business these days.
Tony Brancato is a good bet for bevels, and Baines of silverstone may still do bevel stuff.
John at Mdina Italia (www.mdinaitalia.co.uk) may be able to recommend someone or undertake the work himself now he is back in the uk.
A guy called Richard Bool on the IOM deals in bevel singles parts, and he may know someone there who can do work. Unfortunately I can't find his number, but John at Mdina has it.

btw - you dont want the mille crank cos a plain bearing will need a completely different oil supply to the roller cranks.
