I suppose you could do a rebuild... but my guess is that you are going to have nearly that much into a rebuild as well - as the break would likely take out enough hard parts and bearings thats it's probably less expensive to buy new.

Personally if I had a break like the one above, I'd call RPM and swap it for new with all hardened parts.

(Ignore labour costs, just wondering.)

Once you have had a wreck like the one earlier in this thread I think you would be nuts to use any of the parts again. You are just asking for trouble. Just my 2 cents!
