Connecting Rod Bearing

This connecting rod bearing set from King is designed to support the rotational movement of the crankshaft within your engine. It functions as a critical interface that reduces friction between moving parts to ensure smooth and efficient operation. We offer this component to help you maintain the mechanical integrity of your vehicle's powertrain.

This specific set features an undersize of 0.25 mm relative to the standard dimensions. This specification is often required when the crankshaft journals have been machined during a rebuild process. Each package contains bearings sufficient for two journals. You should carefully verify your engine requirements because you typically need to order two or three packages per engine to complete a full replacement.

Bearings play a vital role in supporting rotational movement while handling the dynamic loads generated during combustion. By minimizing friction they prevent excessive wear and dangerous heat buildup that could damage the crankshaft or connecting rods. Correct installation of these undersized bearings ensures the proper oil clearance is restored for optimal lubrication.
