Connecting Rod Bearings: Inspection

  1. Inspect crankshaft journals for wear or damage. Measure journals for out-of-round and taper. If out-of-round or taper exceeds .0004" (.01 mm), replace or regrind crankshaft and select a proper oversize bearing.
  2. Inspect bearing shells for signs of pitting, burn or flaking and observe contact pattern. Bearings are available in standard and .010" (.25 mm) oversize.
