This can be done but it is prohibited by the Consumer Product Safety Commission. No reputable dealer would do it even before the CPSC prohibition. You shouldn't either. The consequences of blade flying away from a straightened but brittle crank that broke are just too intense for most people. A new crank can't cost that much. Be sure you understand how the timing marks line up before replacing the crank. Good luck.
