Product Details

If you're rebuilding the engine in your classic Ford truck or Bronco, getting the connecting rod bearings right is crucial for long-term durability. This set from Clevite is built to handle the demands of engines like the Ford 240 and 300, covering a wide range of applications from 1965 through 1995. These bearings are a key component in ensuring your engine runs smoothly and reliably for miles to come.

Clevite uses a BiMetal aluminum silicon alloy for these bearings, which is 100% lead-free. What's notable is that they contain 60% more silicon than many other bearings you might find. This higher silicon content helps to condition the crankshaft journal surfaces they run against, leading to better resistance against seizing and general wear. This means a more robust and longer-lasting engine build, especially important when you're putting in the work to refresh an older powerplant.

This set is designed as a direct fit for a variety of Ford vehicles from the mid-60s to the mid-90s, including popular models like the F-150, Bronco, and Econoline vans. Make sure to check the full fitment list to confirm compatibility with your specific year and model.
