Connecting Rod Bearing Set

This connecting rod bearing set from King is designed to facilitate smooth rotation between the connecting rod and the crankshaft. It serves as a critical interface that reduces friction and supports the movement of engine components under load. By maintaining the correct oil clearance these bearings help prevent direct metal-to-metal contact and ensure the longevity of the crankshaft journals. The component plays a vital role in handling the mechanical stresses generated during the combustion process.

The set includes bearings specifically for two journals. You should be aware that a complete engine rebuild typically requires multiple sets depending on the cylinder count. Specifically you will need four sets for a V8 engine or five sets for a V10 engine configuration. This allows you to address specific repair needs or equip the entire engine block during a comprehensive overhaul.

We offer this product from King which produces engine bearings for various applications. The component corresponds to supplier code CR 227XPC. It is compatible with a range of high-performance vehicles within the Volkswagen Group family.
