If the right pedal is all beat up and the other is almost pefect then couldn't you switch the axel/spindel(put the left one in the right and the right in the left) and then you could have the spindel that works with the right crank arm is on the perfect condition left, and then couldn't you run the pedals twice as long with out replacing them? I have no idea if that would work or not but its worth a shot.
