Threads on crankshaft? Help?
A buddy of mine and I replaced the grease inside the clutch due to so much mud and dirt inside and cleaned it all up. Upon putting back together we thought we had it torqued right but apparently not, driving for about five minutes the nut came off and screwed up the ends of the thread on crankshaft.
Any ideas on how to fix this? I can't get the nut started and ordered a new nut. Here's a pic:

Simple thread pitch gauge is available with any metric/sae tap and die set or by itself. Most auto stores will have them. Shaft would either be 1.25,1.50 or 1.75 thread pitch usually. Same for the thread file,can get at most auto stores. Has several different thread pitches on all 4 sides.Plus here's an interesting video that may give you an idea on how to repair damaged threads. If in doubt on crank shaft threads,let someone repair it for you.

Got the thread fixed, new nut and it goes on. Anyone know the proper torque specs for the 2007 Yamaha Wolverine 450? I called two yamaha dealers with two different answers
One says 72lb on primary and 72 on secondary
The other says 65 primary and 100 secondary ?
I put them on at 75 each just to test it and the machine seems to work fine. Only thing I noticed is if I rev engine up while in neutral, the belt doesn't seem to want to stop moving? So I go to shift into gear it'll kind of thud because "rpms" are techincally up. Perhaps I have grease on it? I'm going to check tomorrow.
But thanks for everything so far guys.
