In one case I removed new tokiwa shanks with 16 mm knuckle placement combined with new & way to heavy Renner blues bored to long on an old Stwy style 2. Brand new , with no wear. The hammers are recylable. I don't like tokiwa shanks but.... Then there is the B action with Renner 15.5 shanks & too heavy too juiced something urutheres. Hammers in trash. PIano getting everthing including new shanks. I have 3 minimum wage helpers who can do this job cheap so why through out 4oo bucks worth of basically new parts? You know?

This was a >lot more money than 2 or 3 hours of my time and a set of knuckles. Why not put identical weight hammers on new shanks. (Unless the shank length is not generic). This way you have a prehung set for some other job.
