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

The '.026' indicates that these connecting rod bearings are 0.026 inches undersize. This means they are designed to be used with a crankshaft that has been machined down by 0.026 inches during an engine rebuild.

What is the advantage of the XP design and tri-metal construction?

The XP (Extra Performance) design uses a tri-metal material. This construction is known for its ability to handle higher loads, making these bearings a solid choice for engines that require dependable performance and durability.

Are these bearings suitable for a stock engine rebuild?

These bearings are 0.026 inches undersize, which means they are intended for engines where the crankshaft has been machined down to this specific size. They are not a direct fit for a stock, unmachined crankshaft.

Product Details

King Engine Bearings is well-known for making solid engine components, and their connecting rod bearings are a popular choice for many builds. This set, part number CR6629XP.026, is specifically for Mitsubishi 6G72 engines and is 0.026 inches undersize, meaning it's intended for crankshafts that have been machined down to match this size during an engine rebuild.

These bearings feature King's XP (Extra Performance) design, which uses a tri-metal material construction. This type of material is chosen because it offers improved load-carrying capabilities compared to standard bearings, making them a strong option when you need reliable performance. The precision sizing ensures they fit right onto the connecting rods and crankshaft journals, which is critical for proper oil clearance and engine health.

When you're rebuilding an engine, getting the bearing clearances just right is key to longevity and performance. This set is designed to help you achieve that, especially if your crankshaft has been reground.
