meesh, hi!
Hope you don't mind me asking this, but were you having shifting problems before finding the crack?
The reason I'm asking is the crack isn't really in an area which would cause structural shifting issues. It's the outer part of the barrel, that is the guide for the hanger bolt. The crack seems to end, where bottom of the hanger bolt hits and the part is completely solid. Where the crack is, is anywhere from half a mm to barely a mm.
Can you flex any part and make the crack open up?
What I'm leading up to is, ride it like it is, if it's not giving you any trouble.
Am I making sense?
Liz
