What does the '0.010 inch undersize' mean for these bearings?

The '0.010 inch undersize' designation means these bearings are manufactured to be slightly smaller than standard size. This is necessary when the crankshaft journals have been machined down by 0.010 inches during an engine rebuild or repair to ensure proper clearance and fit.

What is the primary function of connecting rod bearings?

Connecting rod bearings sit between the connecting rod and the crankshaft. Their main job is to reduce friction and wear, allowing the crankshaft to spin smoothly within the connecting rods while maintaining the critical oil clearance needed for lubrication.

Do these bearings come with new connecting rod bolts?

This product is a set of connecting rod bearings only. It does not include connecting rod bolts or any other installation hardware. You will need to source those separately if required for your engine build.

Product Details

This Clevite connecting rod bearing set is built to a 0.010 inch undersize, which is important when you're rebuilding an engine or dealing with crankshaft journals that have been machined down. These bearings are a key part of your engine's rotating assembly, sitting between the connecting rod and the crankshaft to allow for smooth, low-friction movement. They handle a lot of stress, so having a well-built set like these from Clevite makes a big difference in engine longevity and performance.

Clevite has been around for a long time, and they know how to make engine components that last. This set is designed to handle the demands of your 3.9L V6 engine, whether it's in a Dodge Dakota, a Ram 1500, or one of the B-series vans. The precise manufacturing ensures they seat properly and maintain the correct oil clearance, which is critical for oil pressure and lubrication. Getting the right bearing size is crucial for a proper rebuild, and the 0.010 undersize on this set is specifically for applications where the crank journals have been turned down by that amount.
