     Hi:

     After a week, Sharon from Fox called me and said that they had found one. I bought it asap.  I think that the crankshaft has a 10/32 thread.

     I NEVER find anything that I have "lost"! I have found that it is better just to purchase a replacement after spending hours looking for the lost part.  One must know when to admit to defeat! Lol

                                                                          Be well,

                                                                           Frank

Murphy's Law strikes again, now if it was me I would put where I won't lose it but forget where that exact place is when I need it again ! HB~>

I happened on the fox website the other day, and all I can say is that the prices for replacement parts has gone through the  roof. At one time you could rebuild and service your fox motor at a reasonable price, but now you might as well buy a new motor if it needs any parts.  Or buy parts motors from ebay.

    Hi Mike:

    You are correct about the high prices for motor parts from Fox!!!!!

    They sent me a thrust washer for the .15X the other day and it was $10.00 for the part and $4.00 postage! Can you say,"Hello E Bay?"

     The one thing that they do provide is a source for parts for their engines.

                                                                                                Stay well,
