So i am rebuilding my KX80 (1989) and i cannot find that anybody still offers a complete crank rebuild package, only finding rods and bearings available. What do i do for a crank? Are they fixable/rebuildable?

Buy the stock rod, pin, washers, and bearing if at all possible, and send it to crankworks.

It's a 89, take the crank to your local shop and they can press a new rod and bearing together for you.
No need to ship or over spend to fix it.
Rod kits are available, the press time and truing should cost $40-80.

No he doesnt. He uses pro x rods
Cool wasn't sure. I haven't used him but his vids are awesome. I would consider if he was a little closer.

Cooksey Crank. He is in Texas. I haven't dealt with anyone who is better than Andrew. He is top notch. I ship him every crank I get, and I am in KY.

He did some work for me about 6 months ago on my Honda crank, So I called him 2 weeks ago for a crank rebuild on another Honda. He said he was trying to get out of the business and was only going to work on KTM'S only.

I hate to hear that, he did my last crank about 6 months ago.
