What does the +0.75mm sizing mean for these bearings?

The +0.75mm sizing indicates that these bearings are 0.75mm undersize compared to a standard bearing. This is used when the crankshaft journals have been machined down by 0.75mm to clean up wear or damage, ensuring the correct clearance when installed.

What is the material of these connecting rod bearings?

These bearings are made from a bimetal construction with an aluminum base. This material is chosen for its good performance characteristics in engine applications, balancing strength and heat dissipation.

Does this bearing set come with all the necessary hardware for installation?

This product is a set of connecting rod bearings only. Installation hardware, such as new rod bolts, is typically sold separately and should be sourced according to your engine's specific service manual.

About this part

Product Details

When you're rebuilding an engine, especially for an Opel 1.8L or 2.0L X18/20XE, the connecting rod bearings are critical. This set from King Engine Bearings is a well-built bimetal (aluminum base) option designed to handle the demands of engine operation. These bearings are sized +0.75mm, meaning they are 0.75mm undersize, which is important if your crankshaft journals have been machined to this specification during a rebuild.

King Engine Bearings has a solid reputation for making reliable engine components. This particular set uses an aluminum-based bimetal construction, which is common in modern performance and rebuild applications for its good balance of strength and thermal conductivity. They fit a wide range of vehicles, including popular models like the Pontiac Sunbird, Buick Skyhawk, and Isuzu Rodeo, making them a versatile choice for many engine projects.
