I haven't done an engine rebuild in over 18 years. I do recall putting more than one reground crankshaft into engines though when I was working in the shops. It is (well at least then it was) preferred not to install a crankshaft that was ground more than .30 but have installed them ground to .60 and some of them lasted as far as I know until now. I know of only one of them that had problems that was ground to .60. It was in a JD 4620, That ran for about 4 years before it gave up. But then again, there were a lot of other contributing factors. The Farmer that owned it did not keep up on the maintenance very well and it had oil in it that looked more like something used for paving highways.
