What does the +0.50mm sizing mean for these bearings?

The +0.50mm sizing means these bearings are designed to fit a crankshaft that has been machined down by 0.50mm from its original size. This is a common step when rebuilding an engine with worn crankshaft journals.

What is the primary function of main bearings?

Main bearings support the crankshaft within the engine block. They allow the crankshaft to rotate smoothly while handling the forces generated during combustion and power delivery.

Are these bearings sold individually or as a set?

This product is a main bearing set, meaning it includes all the necessary main bearings required for a complete installation on your Land Rover's 224Dt engine.

About this part

Product Details

This is a main bearing set from King Engine Bearings, specifically sized at +0.50mm for Land Rover 224Dt engines. Main bearings are critical components that support the crankshaft within the engine block, allowing it to rotate smoothly while handling significant loads. When rebuilding or repairing an engine, especially if the crankshaft has been machined undersize, using the correct size bearings is essential for proper oil clearance and engine longevity.

King Engine Bearings is known for producing well-built engine bearings. This set is manufactured to precise specifications to ensure it meets the needs of your Land Rover's engine. The +0.50mm sizing indicates these bearings are intended for use when the crankshaft journals have been ground down by 0.50mm from their original size, a common practice during engine overhauls to restore worn surfaces. Proper installation with the correct oil clearance is key to getting the most out of these bearings.
