What does the '.026' in the part number signify?

The '.026' in the part number MB5824XPC.026 indicates that this main bearing set is 0.026 inches undersize. This means the bearings are designed to fit a crankshaft that has had its main journals machined down by 0.026 inches.

What is the primary function of main bearings?

Main bearings support the crankshaft within the engine block. They create a low-friction surface that allows the crankshaft to rotate smoothly while maintaining proper oil clearance, which is essential for lubrication and preventing wear.

Are any other parts typically needed when installing main bearings?

When installing main bearings, it's common to also need new main bearing cap bolts or studs, assembly lubricant to coat the bearings before installation, and potentially a new oil pump and oil filter to ensure clean oil flow.

About this part

Product Details

King Engine Bearings is well-known for making robust internal engine components. This main bearing set, part number MB5824XPC.026, is built for Ford GT500 blocks. It's important to note that this set is 0.026 inches undersize, which is a specific measurement for engine rebuilding where the crankshaft journals have been machined down to match.

These bearings are designed to provide reliable performance for the critical main bearing journals. When rebuilding an engine, especially a performance-oriented one like found in a GT500, the precision and quality of the bearings are paramount to ensuring proper oil clearance and long-term durability. Using the correct size bearing is crucial for establishing the right oil film between the bearing and the crankshaft, which is essential for preventing wear.
