Product Details

This Clevite main bearing set features a 75mm main journal diameter, matching the original equipment specifications for Mercedes Benz OM447LA, OM457LA, OM460LA, and MBE4000 engines. When you're rebuilding an engine, especially one of these heavy-duty Mercedes Benz models, the main bearings are critical for supporting the crankshaft and ensuring smooth operation. They sit between the crankshaft journals and the engine block, taking on significant loads.

Clevite uses a tri-metal construction for these bearings, which is a well-known standard in engine building. This construction offers a good balance of strength and conformability, helping to absorb shock and maintain oil film integrity under pressure. The precise dimensions ensure they fit right into the prepared main caps and block, which is essential for proper oil clearance and bearing function. Getting the oil clearance just right is key to preventing premature wear and ensuring the longevity of your rebuild.

This set is designed as a direct replacement for the OE part, meaning it's intended to install without modification. If you're in the middle of an engine overhaul or repair, having a reliable set of main bearings like these from Clevite will help you get the job done correctly.
