Yes there is! The problem was traced to the oil feed passages in the block that supplied oil to the thrust bearing. Mitsu seemed to think that they could lower the supply of oil volume and raise the pressure of the the oil supply to the thrust bearing and accomplish the same thing, interesting concept but it just did'nt work out that way. There is a certain volume of oil needed by that bearing and there is just no way around it. The answer was to open up the feed passage in the block.=[problem solved]

"This could be a temporary fix. That is if it hasn't already cut into other parts of the crank or rack that holds it in place."-rre
"As of now there is still no fix"-rre
"Like all the pros say, no fix as of yet
but the general temp maint is to
keep good, clean oil at all times. Sythetic
i guess, the oil squirters i guess on the
2G gets clogged, just change when you are
suppose to. These things may help it
from coming on too soon"
"Another popular theory of crankwalk is that a heavy pressure plate causes stress on the crankshaft and literally over time and use will pull it out of alignment"
i think thats enogh info to prove u wrong, theres about another 60 pages if u wanna read. all say no cure for crankwalk
but hey, u think you know, you could be a very rich man

Spool I dont know where your info comes from but I can tell you this. When crankwalk started happening to 2nd gen DSM's a couple of junked 2nd gen blocks were sawn apart because it was suspected that there was some type of change made to that block, it was found that Mitsu had put a restrictor in the oilfeed passage to the thrust bearing in the block. Several people have drilled out that restrictor to restore oil volume and have not had anymore trouble. Please tell me where to read that info as I am very interested in it.

Gee, this thread started out as a nice informative discussion. But nooooo...some people had to go screw it up after 100 good posts.
