What does the '+1.0mm' mean for these bearings?

The '+1.0mm' indicates that these bearings are 1.0 millimeter oversize. This means they are designed to be used with a crankshaft that has been machined down by 1.0 millimeter to account for wear or to achieve specific clearances.

What is a bimetal bearing?

A bimetal bearing, like this set, uses a combination of materials. It typically has a steel backing for strength and a bearing surface made of an aluminum alloy, which offers good compatibility with the crankshaft and helps manage heat.

Do these bearings come with installation instructions?

While these bearings are designed as a direct replacement, it is always recommended to refer to the manufacturer's installation guide or a service manual for the correct procedures, torque specifications, and oil clearance checks.

Product Details

King Engine Bearings is known for making solid engine bearings, and this set of connecting rod bearings is no different. If you're rebuilding the engine in your 1972-1980 Saab 99 with a B20, B20E, B202, or Bz20 engine, these bearings are a key part of getting your engine back together right.

These are bimetal bearings, meaning they have an aluminum base. This construction helps them handle the loads and heat generated by your engine. This specific set is 1.0mm oversize, which is important if you're machining your crankshaft to match. Using the correct size bearing is crucial for proper oil clearance and engine longevity.
