Crankshaft, race crankshaft
and
crippelshaft

We have been building these since 1984, when the 24 Hr 2CV Races in Spa-Francorchamps began.

We have build all the tools needed for dissasembling and assembling, to overhaul the 2CV, Visa and GS/GSA crankshafts. The journals surfaces are allways finest polished, to reduce friction as much as possible. Fitted in the crankcase you can turn it easily with your 2 fingers! This shows impressively how near perfect the out of round is corrected! Those people who have rebuild some 2CV or Visa engines know that this very rarely occurs with standard exchange or original replacements crankshafts! Thats the reason why we call them "crippelshaft"!

A racing crankshaft is build up starting from a new one, but also possible from a used one, only when it's in an excellent condition, with only "a few kilometers on the journals"!
All options are available: Our experience in this field is out of reach for other companies!
You can use this experience in "YOUR CRANKSHAFT", so enquire directly! You get what you want, and what is necessary for your purpose without any knicks-knacks.

For normal purpose, exchange crankshafts can be found in our Spare Parts List.
Technical explanations on the how and why about crankshaft mods and improvements can be found in related publications, technical literature and magazines.

We supply only special cranks to customer specifications.
What we do on a crank is :

We have indicated that a lot of options are available, from a standard (better than new!) unit to a full racing crank that can easily take high loads and 9000 rpm without break down or strafing.

AVAILABLE OPTIONS:

NEVER FORGET : THE WEAR STATUS OF A CRANKSHAFT CAN ONLY BE EVALUATED AFTER DISMANTLING AND THE CHECKING OF CONRODS JOURNALS CAN BE DONE!

What is done on our overhauled crankshaft:crippelshaft

2CV and VISA: Better than new!
All what is standard on the original Citroën serial crank. But we do it better, for example with massive special bronze bushing we fit in conrods small ends, instead the cheap rolled steel bronze backed bushing from serial crank! Finest polishing of all journals bearing surfaces. Better out of round correction!

Prices start at: 266,00 EURO
