I've been calling to get estimates today and it will run around $400-$500 at least. Needless to say I'm going to do it.
Just the part is $300 and its a big job . If someone charges you $1000 you are doing good .

If it went away with belt dressing

if the noise goes away with belt dressing, I don't understand why you would think it is the HB, That at least proves it isn't the interface between the HB and Crank. What am I not understanding?
