The Honda 13311-Z8A-900 Crankshaft is a genuine OEM replacement designed for GC160 and GS160 horizontal shaft engines, as well as HS520 and HS720 single-stage snow blowers. As a factory-original component, this crankshaft is manufactured to Honda's exact tolerances, ensuring proper fit and correct bearing journal geometry right out of the box. Confirm part number 13311-Z8A-900 against your machine's serial number and model before ordering, as Honda supersedes crankshaft part numbers at production breaks.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Crankshaft — manufactured by Honda to the same tolerances as the original, preserving the precise journal dimensions and stroke geometry your engine depends on
- Direct OEM Replacement — engineered to drop into GC160 and GS160 horizontal shaft engines and the HS520 and HS720 single-stage snow blowers without modification
- Check Your Serial Number — Honda updates crankshaft part numbers at production breaks; verify your unit's serial number against the fitment table to confirm this is the correct version for your machine
- Restores Full Power Stroke — a worn or damaged crankshaft causes vibration, bearing noise, and loss of power; this genuine replacement returns the engine to its designed operating condition
The crankshaft is the central rotating component of an engine, converting the up-and-down motion of the piston into the rotational output that drives the equipment. It runs in precision bearings and must maintain exact dimensional tolerances to keep the piston, connecting rod, and valvetrain in correct timing and alignment. When a crankshaft becomes worn, bent, or develops bearing journal damage, the result is excessive vibration, oil loss, unusual noise, and ultimately engine failure — making a correct-fit OEM replacement the only reliable path to restoring full operation.
