What is the main benefit of the higher silicon content in these bearings?

The higher silicon content, at 60% more than comparable replacements, helps to better condition the crankshaft journal surfaces. This leads to improved wear resistance and greater seizure resistance, helping to protect your engine's rotating assembly.

Are these bearings a direct fit for my 2005 Scion tC?

Yes, this Clevite connecting rod bearing set is listed as a direct fit for the 2005 Scion tC. It's always a good idea to double-check the full fitment details for your specific vehicle.

What does 'Bi-Metal' mean for these bearings?

Bi-Metal construction typically refers to a bearing made from two different metals. In this case, it's an aluminum silicon alloy, which is known for its good bearing properties and wear resistance, especially when compared to older babbitt-style bearings.

About this part

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the engine in your 2003-2005 Ford 4 2.3L DOHC, a fresh set of connecting rod bearings is essential. These Clevite Bi-Metal bearings are built with 100% lead-free aluminum silicon, a well-built material that carries on a tradition of durability and dependability.

What sets these bearings apart is their composition: they're engineered with 60% more silicon than many other replacement bearings. This higher silicon content helps to better condition the crankshaft journal surfaces they ride on, leading to improved seizure and wear resistance. This means your engine's rotating assembly will have a better chance of staying in good shape for longer.

This set is designed for a range of vehicles, including popular models like the Toyota Camry, Scion tC, and Toyota RAV4. Always check the full fitment guide to confirm compatibility with your specific application.
