What does the '+0.25mm' size mean for these bearings?

The '+0.25mm' indicates that these bearings are designed for use when the crankshaft journals have been machined down by 0.25mm during an engine rebuild. This is a common practice to ensure a proper fit and oil clearance on worn or damaged crankshafts.

What type of engines are these bearings best suited for?

These bearings feature a lead-free composite material and are ideal for low to medium-load engines. They are a good choice for the classic VW and Audi applications they are designed to fit, which typically fall into these load categories.

Do these bearings come as a set?

Yes, this is a set of connecting rod bearings. You will receive the necessary bearings to replace all connecting rod bearings on one engine.

Product Details

If you're working on a VW or Audi engine from the 70s or 80s, like a Rabbit, Jetta, or Audi 4000, and need to replace the connecting rod bearings, this set from King Engine Bearings is a solid option. These bearings are specifically made for those engines and are sized at +0.25mm, meaning they're meant to be used when the crankshaft journals have been machined down by that amount during a rebuild.

King has been specializing in bearings since 1960, and this set uses a lead-free composite material. This makes them an environmentally safe choice and they're well-suited for engines that don't see extremely heavy loads, like many of the classic VW and Audi applications they fit. The bi-metal aluminum construction is a standard for good reason, offering a good balance of strength and conformability to the crankshaft.
