Re: spun bearing
You have a 98 eclipse spyder with a spun bearing? Rebuild it? New crankshaft?

Re: spun bearing
If the bearing has spun the engine should not be run, a new crankshaft shoudl not be necessary however it will need machining and oversized bearings.

Re: spun bearing
mitsu cars with reground cranks tend to wipe out new bearings on high power.... better to go with new oe nitrated or billet. imho.
