To be truthful Im not sure where to source China made parts for an Isuzu. Parts from Japan are a whole different story. China and Japan and not the same. The intended use would make the determination for me Price wise. If its a machine that will see thousands of hours it would get all new OEM parts no exceptions. If its a hobby/homeowner machine that wont see a thousand hours in the next 10 years I would take a chance and save some cash. Cranks can be repaired but for a crank that costs less than a grand I wouldn't bother because I have seen too many problems. I also rarely buy complete kits when a repair is all that's needed. Check the tolerances and see what can and can not be reused. A used runner may be a cheaper alternative in the long run.</p></blockquote><p></p>
