Rod Bearings

  1. Ensure connecting rod and cap have matching identification marks. Ensure bearing oil clearance and connecting rod side play are within specification. See CRANKSHAFT, MAIN & CONNECTING ROD BEARINGS  and CONNECTING RODS  tables under ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS.
  2. If any bearing clearance cannot be adjusted to standard specification, grind crankshaft and use undersize bearings. Tighten connecting rod bearing cap nuts to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS .
