Where are you buying your cranksaft from? G38
Why are these so hard to find? Does anyone have any insight as to where I can but a pair of Zenoah G38 crankshafts? I have two that have been sitting for years so its time to repair them but I never thought I would have such a hard time finding parts.
Thank you!!
Thank you!!

If they are out of alignment or twisted from a prop strike, there's a guy on this forum that can straighten them for you.
If the big end bearing is gone, it is usually better to get a new crank.
If you are getting one re-aligned, he will need the flywheel/hub too as they are sometimes the part that is bent?

I have been getting my G62 parts from
Dave's discount motors . I don't see the G38 shafts listed on his site but you can call them to see if they can get them .

I sent three G-38 crankshafts to Al at BH Hanson products to be repaired. They were bent and two slightly twisted. New cranksafts cost $90+. Al charges $15 to $20 each to fix. If he can fix all of them, I'll have one extra.
