Product Details

This Clevite Main Bearing Set, part number MS863P30, includes the necessary bearings to rebuild or repair the main bearing journals on a variety of engines. Main bearings are critical components that support the crankshaft within the engine block, allowing it to rotate smoothly while handling immense forces. When these bearings wear out, it can lead to excessive crankshaft movement, oil pressure loss, and potentially catastrophic engine damage. This set is designed to replace those worn components, restoring proper crankshaft support and oil clearance.

Clevite has been a well-known name in engine bearings for a long time, and this set is built to meet the demands of engine rebuilding. The bearings in this MS863P30 set are manufactured with specific materials and dimensions to ensure they fit right and perform reliably. They are designed to provide the correct oil clearance, which is essential for proper lubrication and cooling of the crankshaft journals. Proper installation is key, so always refer to your vehicle's service manual for specific torque specifications and procedures when installing these bearings.

This bearing set fits a broad spectrum of vehicles, including many Ford and Mercury models from the 1960s and 1970s, such as the Ford F-Series trucks, Ford Fairlane, Mercury Cougar, and Mercury Monterey. Ensuring you have the correct main bearings is a fundamental step in any engine overhaul or repair project.
