What does the '+0.50mm' size mean for these bearings?

The '+0.50mm' designation means these bearings are 0.50mm larger in diameter than standard size. This indicates they are intended for use on a crankshaft that has been machined down by 0.50mm as part of an engine rebuild process.

What is the construction of these connecting rod bearings?

These bearings are constructed using a bimetal design, which features an aluminum base. This type of construction is common for engine bearings as it offers good load-carrying capacity and wear resistance.

Are these bearings a direct replacement for all 4G12 engines?

These bearings are a direct replacement for the Mitsubishi 4G12 engine, but only if the crankshaft has been machined to a +0.50mm undersize. Always confirm your crankshaft journal size before ordering replacement bearings.

About this part

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the engine in your 1979-1988 Dodge Colt, Plymouth Champ, Plymouth Colt, or Mitsubishi Mirage, these King Engine Bearings connecting rod bearings are a solid option. They are specifically made for the Mitsubishi 4G12 engine and come at a +0.50mm size, meaning they're intended for crankshafts that have been machined down by 0.50mm during an engine rebuild. These bearings use a bimetal construction with an aluminum base, which is a common and well-built material for handling the loads and temperatures found in an engine's bottom end.

King Engine Bearings is a well-known name in the engine parts world, and these bearings are designed to fit right into your 4G12 application. The bimetal design helps manage oil flow and wear, crucial for keeping your engine running smoothly after a rebuild. When installing these, remember they are meant for a machined crankshaft; using them on an unmachined crank will cause premature failure.
