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

The higher silicon content, 60% more than many competitors, helps to better condition the crankshaft journal surfaces. This leads to improved resistance against seizing and wear, contributing to a longer engine life.

Are these bearings a direct replacement for the original equipment?

Yes, these Clevite connecting rod bearings are designed as a direct replacement for the original equipment in the specified Ford, Mazda, and Mercury vehicles. They are intended to fit right into your engine rebuild.

What does 'bi-metal' construction mean for these bearings?

Bi-metal construction means the bearing is made of two different metal layers. In this case, it's a strong aluminum silicon alloy bonded to a steel backing, which provides both strength and the necessary bearing surface properties.

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the engine in your 1986-1997 Ford Aerostar, 1990-1992 Probe, or 1991-2008 Ranger, these Clevite connecting rod bearings are a solid option. They are designed to carry on a tradition of durability and dependability, using a bi-metal construction with 100% lead-free aluminum silicon.

What sets these bearings apart is their composition: they contain 60% more silicon than many comparable replacements. This advanced material composition helps condition the journal surfaces they run against, leading to greater resistance against seizing and wear. This means you can expect a more reliable performance and longer life from your engine rebuild.
