What is the main function of connecting rod bearings?

Connecting rod bearings sit between the connecting rod and the crankshaft. Their primary job is to allow the connecting rod to spin smoothly around the crankshaft while handling the high forces from combustion, reducing friction and wear.

What does the '50MM' in the part number signify?

The '50MM' indicates the journal diameter size of the bearing. This specific size is crucial for ensuring the bearing fits correctly onto the crankshaft journal and maintains the proper oil clearance for optimal engine performance.

Do I need to replace all the rod bearings at once?

It is highly recommended to replace all connecting rod bearings on a crankshaft at the same time when rebuilding an engine. This ensures consistent wear patterns and oil clearances across all connecting rods for balanced engine operation.

About this part

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the engine in a range of Dodge, Jeep, or Chrysler vehicles from the late 90s through the late 2000s, this Clevite connecting rod bearing set is a solid option. These bearings sit between the connecting rod and the crankshaft, allowing the rod to spin freely while handling the immense forces generated during combustion. Over time, these surfaces can wear down, leading to increased clearances and potential engine noise or damage.

This set is designed as a direct replacement for your original bearings. Clevite is a well-known name in engine components, and these bearings are made to meet the original specifications for your application. They are built to handle the pressures and temperatures found in V6 and V8 engines, ensuring smooth operation and helping to restore proper engine function. The 50mm size is a key specification to ensure it mates correctly with the crankshaft journals.
