Question

On a daily driven vehicle with a stock engine with cast pistons etc. that is not worth the money for having the complete rotating assembly balanced would it increase engine durability if I matched all the piston's weights, polished the rod beams and equalized the small and big rod end's weights without having the crankshaft balanced at a shop (sort of cheap do-it-yourself balancing)?
Or would this only disturb the coarse factory balancing and make things even worse?
