What does the '1.00' in the part number signify?

The '1.00' in the part number indicates that these bearings are 1.00mm undersize. This means they are designed for use with a crankshaft that has been machined down by 1.00mm to ensure proper clearance and fit during an engine rebuild.

What is the primary function of connecting rod bearings?

Connecting rod bearings sit between the crankshaft and the connecting rod. Their main job is to reduce friction and wear by allowing the rod to rotate smoothly around the crank journal, while maintaining a thin film of oil.

Are these bearings sold as a set for all connecting rods?

Typically, engine bearing sets like this are sold to cover all the connecting rods in the engine. You will receive enough bearings for all cylinders to ensure consistent wear and performance across the entire engine.

About this part

Product Details

Already running a built V8? This connecting rod bearing set from ACL is the next piece of the puzzle for your engine rebuild. These bearings are crucial for ensuring smooth operation between your crankshaft and connecting rods, handling the immense forces generated by your 4.6L or 5.4L engine. If you're diving into the heart of your Ford, whether it's a Crown Victoria, F-150, or Mustang, getting the right bearings is a key step to a reliable build.

ACL has been making engine bearings for a long time, and this set is built to handle the demands of performance V8 engines. They're designed to provide a consistent oil film, which is essential for reducing friction and wear on critical rotating components. This particular set is 1.00mm undersize, meaning it's intended for use with a crankshaft that has been machined down by 1.00mm to ensure a perfect fit and proper clearance. Proper installation and machining are key here, so make sure you're following the manufacturer's guidelines or have a trusted machine shop handle the crank preparation.
