Message	Spoke to Bernie about this issue a couple of weeks ago regarding the Crank sprocket. Since the sprocket tends to rust out when changing timing belt or trying to take it out to replace the crank seal... Was wondering if any vendors would take a step and actually pre-drill the two point to make it easier to get them out instead of having to cut these suckers. Pre-drill would be easier for buyer to simply install them and when needed to change, just use a puller and BAM. what are you input?
