Crank is low miles French military rebuild. Bearings are brand new. Saddle is not worn.

I think the French military might have ground the cranks oversize on the thrust faces and had access to oversize bearings to suit.

I have a crank with a damaged thrust face. Can someone give details on the welding process to build up the thrust face?

For example, what type of welding? Mig? Arc/ what type of wire or rod? Special gas?

If normal mig welding and wire I could try myself. Ditto if arc if I know what rods to use.

Thanks for the input so far..

Mart.
