King Engine Bearings Toyota 5ME/5MGE/7MGE/7MGTE (Size +1.0) Rod Bearing Set

Built with a bimetal construction on an aluminum base, this connecting rod bearing set from King Engine Bearings is designed for a range of Toyota engines. These bearings are crucial for reducing friction between the crankshaft and connecting rod, ensuring smooth operation and longevity for your engine. They are specifically sized at +1.0mm, meaning they are intended for use when the crankshaft journals have been machined down by 1.0mm during an engine rebuild or repair.

This set is a solid option for rebuilding engines like the 5ME, 5MGE, 7MGE, and 7MGTE found in popular Toyota models. The bimetal design offers good wear resistance and conformability, helping to maintain oil film integrity under various operating conditions. Proper installation, which typically involves ensuring the crankshaft journals are clean and within the specified tolerance for the +1.0mm size, is key to getting the most out of these well-built bearings.

If you're working on a Toyota Celica from the early 80s, a Cressida from the 80s or early 90s, or a Supra from the late 80s and early 90s, this bearing set is engineered to fit. Always refer to your vehicle's specific service manual for detailed installation procedures and torque specifications to ensure a successful engine rebuild.
