If the remainder of the crank is in good shape (or just needs a regrind), it
may be more cost-effective to get it repaired. What they do is lay a weld
bead over the area to build it up, and then grind it back to size (just like
grinding a journal except on-center). ISTR I was quoted $20, 'back when'.

Rebuilding the box on TS39781LO was certainly one of those "Why the *$%
didn't I do this sooner!" experiences. But of course you have to beware the
dread shipwright's disease!
