Connecting Rod Bearing

This connecting rod bearing set is designed for one cylinder to support the rotational movement of the crankshaft within your engine. It functions as a critical interface that allows the connecting rod to rotate smoothly around the crankshaft journal. By reducing mechanical friction between these moving parts, the bearing ensures efficient operation and helps prevent metal-on-metal contact during the combustion cycle. Since this package contains bearings for a single cylinder, you may need to order multiple units to complete a full engine overhaul.

This specific component features a journal size of 50.00 mm. It is important to note that this is a standard replacement bearing and not a sputter type. You should verify your measurements carefully before installation, as applications requiring a journal size of 45.00 mm must refer to product number 77970600 instead. We offer this product from King which produces this component under the supplier code CR1658SV.

The bearing is suitable for a wide range of vehicle applications. It fits numerous models from the BMW family including the 1 Series, 3 Series, 5 Series, and various X models like the X3 and X5. You can also install this part in specific MINI models such as the Countryman and Clubman, as well as select ALPINA vehicles like the D3 and D4.
