so i havent been on here in quite a while, but I just wrecked my 88 pickup into a telephone pole. Im looking for a newer truck and i found an affordable 1991 with a V6. Problem is, its got a spun main bearing. Anyone know how hard this is to fix or how much t could cost? I wanna know before i make an offer.

Thanks for the help!

It depends on the damage done, might have to replace the crank and block. You will have to tear it down and measure parts to know for sure.

Best hope, a new crank and bearings. Worse, a new block. You can expect to pay between $250 and $1500 for the repair, if you do it yourself, from a new crank to another long block. Youwon't know until you pull the motor.

ok thanks guys. but i decided my truck is salvageable. Haha it looks really bad but the ARB kept it from being really badly damaged. ARB folded in half tho haha.
