Question 1

What does 'trimetal' mean?

Accepted Answer

Trimetal bearings have three layers: a steel backing for strength, an intermediate layer for fatigue resistance, and a soft overlay for embeddability. The soft overlay allows the bearing to embed small particles, preventing damage to the crankshaft.

Question 2

What happens if I install the wrong size bearing?

Accepted Answer

Installing the wrong size bearing can cause serious engine damage. Too small, and the crankshaft will bind. Too large, and you'll have low oil pressure. Always plastigage your clearances to confirm proper fitment.

Question 3

Do these bearings come with installation instructions?

Accepted Answer

No, this bearing set does not include installation instructions. Refer to the factory service manual or a trusted repair guide for proper installation procedures and torque specifications.
